Bradley Pierce has spoken about how Robin Williams stepped in to shield him and Kirsten Dunst from tough requests during the 1995 shoot of Jumanji. Pierce said Williams approached producers directly when demands for overtime from kid cast members piled pressure on the set. The actor, by all accounts, reportedly pulled staff aside to shut it down, looking out for green young performers who had little say. Pierce raised the story during a week marking the star's 75th birthday, in remarks shared in recent days, underlining the backstage help Williams showed when cameras were off.
