Who doesn't love Julia Roberts' signature smile and big laugh?

However, it's not exactly the kind of laugh you want to hear while lying naked in bed with her.

That's something Breaking Bad Emmy winner Bryan Cranston knows all too well...

Cranston costars with Roberts in the upcoming Tom Hanks-directed film Larry Crowne. Yup, they have a bedroom scene together.

"She's giggling and I am completely naked," Cranston recently told us. "She is completely in sweats [under the blanket], but I'm naked underneath because I have to make an exit and you see that he has nothing on. So she says she's embarrassed. I go, 'Why are you embarrassed? I'm the one with nothing on!'"

Cranston also says his role as a drug-dealing dad with cancer in the AMC series Breaking Bad almost kept him from taking the part as Robert's hubby in the flick.

"Well, when I got the call from Tom...I was in my full Walter White Breaking Bad bald-head look," says the 54-year-old actor. "I said, 'Tom, I gotta tell you, I look more like her dad than I do her potential husband.' But he said, 'No, no, your hair will grow back. It'll be fine. Don't worry about it.' But it was a little nervous for me."
