Cuba Gooding Jr. created an alter ego, “Dick McWilly,” to party after a Cinema Society screening of “Electrick Children” at Hotel Americano on Monday. The fun-loving “Jerry Maguire” Oscar winner was overheard at the bash introducing himself to a woman as McWilly, who has a criminal past. “I just got out of jail,” Gooding said, incoherently explaining, “I had sex with a leprechaun, who had sex with an alligator and got him pregnant. No, I’m lying, the alligator wasn’t pregnant.” Gooding was later seen at the Make Up For Ever-sponsored bash, telling a guest he was “drinking ant piss” before demonstrating how to “milk an ant.” The actor, who we reported took off his shirt recently at a Union Square sports bar, will star on Broadway in “The Trip to Bountiful.” “I don’t like to talk about work with my co-workers, so I’m going to treat you like a co-worker now,” he was overheard saying about the show. “If I was gonna make you a sandwich, you wouldn’t want me to talk about me making you a sandwich. You just want the sandwich . . . and it’s a good sandwich.”
