Gerard Depardieu has revealed that he didn't just killed two lions in self-defense during a trip to Africa in September, he ate them too.

The 65-year-old French actor recalled that when they broke down on a track in the bush, in Burkina Faso, two lions waited in front of them and wouldn't move, the Independent reported.

Depardieu added that hours passed, and they couldn't get out of the car, which scared the African driver and so they had no choice as they had to shoot them.
