Woody Harrelson recalls dinner with Donald Trump: 'It was brutal'

Academy Award-nominated actor said he had to smoke a joint to get through the occasion

Woody Harrelson has spoken about a dinner party he attended where Donald Trump was also a guest.

The actor appeared on Real Time With Bill Maher and revealed he had been invited to the evening in New York by retired professional wrestler Jesse Ventura.

"I went and it was brutal," Harrelson, who plays President Lyndon B. Johnson in upcoming movie LBJ, said. "I never met a more narcissistic man. He talked about himself the whole time.

"You could see the standard he was going to bear. I had to walk out halfway through just to, like, steel myself from the rest of it," he added.

Harrselson is also set to appear in the new Star Wars Han Solo spin-off, Solo: A Star Wars Story.

The young Han Solo will be played by Alden Ehrenreich alongside a cast which also includes Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, Thandie Newton, Donald Glover, and Fleabag actress Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
