Jonah Hill has revealed that he drinks large amounts of liquor before filming scenes in which his character is drunk.

The actor said that he first used the tactic in Superbad and then again in Get Him To The Greek as he doesn't like the unrealistic acting in such scenes.

"I hate watching films where someone's supposed to be drunk and you can tell that they're not," he told FHM.

"In Superbad I was really concerned about the scene where I had to kiss Emma Stone and end up headbutting her. I wanted it to feel real, so I got a bottle of vodka and just starting hammering it."

He continued: "For Get Him To The Greek, I'd just get really drunk and videotape myself, then I had references to how many shots I'd had and how drunk I was."

Get Him To The Greek is in cinemas now.
