Apparently, having tough-guy actors like Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg around
isn't enough to deter a curious fan from trying to sneak a peek at their co-star,
Amy Adams, while in her trailer on the set of The Fighter.

According to RadarOnline.com, shortly after 1,500 extras participated in a major
boxing scene at Paul Tsongas Arena in Lowell, Massachusetts, an unidentified man
climbed the stairs to Adams' trailer and stuck his head inside. Adams, who was
speaking with a production worker inside the trailer, was startled and scared the
intruder off by yelling at him. The man ran off and is currently at large. In the
wake of the incident, security around the set has been tightened.

Watertown native Eliza Dushku described a similar incident via Twitter while
filming the psychological thriller "Valediction."

Inspired by a true story, The Fighter tells the story of "Irish" Mickey Ward (played
by Wahlberg) and his half-brother and trainer, Dickie Eklund (Bale), who fought
former world champion Sugar Ray Leonard in 1978. With the assistance of Ecklund,
Ward fought throughout the '80s and 90s and his fights against Arturo Gotti are
considered some of the greatest in boxing history. Adams plays Charlene, a tough
bartender and former athlete who falls in love with Wahlberg's character.

security has been tightened after the incident. Adams, wearing an '80s-inspired
black dress, stepped in the ring as Charlene, a gritty bartender from
Massachusetts who ends up dating Wahlberg's character, "Irish" Micky Ward.
Adams joins veteran actress Melissa Leo playing Bale and Wahlberg's mother,
Alice.

Filming continued on Friday with a "weigh in" featuring Wahlberg as Ward and a
press conference with Bale as his brother.
