The 80-year-old veteran star was on 'The Graham Norton Show', where its host called the incident "the TV moment of if not the year, the decade," which Beatty quipped, "Not the century?" reported Deadline.
Recalling the moment, Beatty said, "I thought well, maybe this is a misprint. And then, I shouldn't foul up the show just because someone made a little error."
Norton then intervened, saying it appeared as if Beatty deliberately handed over the card to Dunaway so that he would not be responsible for the gaffe, which Beatty denounced.
After a long conversation over the embarrassing goof-up, Beatty called the whole incident a "chaos".
