Mike Tyson was drunk and high on drugs when he first met “The Hangover” cast — and went on to film the movie the following day.

The 54-year-old heavyweight legend, who said he looked like a “pig” during the time of filming, did not even know he was set to feature in the comedy classic.

But after bumping into Zach Galifianakis and fellow co-stars on a night out, Tyson was told about his Hollywood cameo and on set a day later.

He told motivational guru Tony Robbins: “I met the guys in a club, they were in the VIP section and I said, ‘This is where I normally sit, nobody’s normally here.’.

“So I went in there, I’m checking these guys to see what they’re doing in my section.

It was Zach, the other guy, and he said, ‘We’re going to be in a movie with you’ and I said, ‘Yeah.

When?’ And he said, ‘Tomorrow,'” Tyson recalled.

Tyson played himself in the 2009 blockbuster, as Galifianakis, Ed Helms and Bradley Cooper stole one of the boxer’s famous tigers.

Iron Mike goes on to knock out Alan — played by Galifianakis — before his tiger cat is returned.

I was a pig, high on cocaine,” Tyson said.

“One day I’m in a restaurant and the movie hadn’t come out yet, but the kids must have seen the preview of me punching Zach,” Tyson said

“So one of those sightseeing buses went by and all the kids came off the bus and grabbed me, taking pictures and my friend says, ‘I think we’ve got something here, Mike’ and I said, ‘Yeah, me too.’”
