Michael Fassbender says he finally believes in 'Macbeth curse' after being spooked on set

Hollywood star Michael Fassbender has admitted some very spooky things happened on the set of his new movie Macbeth.

“Certain things that made one think ‘oh my god’. So at a certain point we changed it to The Scottish Film.”

“You are evoking darker spirits, or the underworld, whatever you want to call it,” he explained.

“It’s such a particular piece dealing with grieving death, and two people trying to find themselves again in a relationship, having lost a child.”

The Shakespeare play is said to be cursed, with belief that saying the name inside a theatre will cause ‘disaster.’

Those who believe in the curse claim that real spells are cast in the scene with the three witches.

The highly anticipated movie also stars Transformers actor Jack Reynor as Malcolm and Award winning actress Marion Cotillard as Lady Macbeth.
