Wesley Snipes was reported to be very difficult on the ‘Blade:Trinity’ set. He was going through some bad deal with the IRS at the time so I kind of get it.

Don’t mess with the IRS, they’ll wreck you faster than the IRA!

Chevy Chase

They claim Chevy is a real ass to deal with. Kind of weird if it’s true because most everyone loves the guy’s movies, what is he tripping about?

I got into a show called Community with Chevy Chase cast as Pierce Hawthorne. The show was hilarious and doing fine until the drama resulting in Chase leaving the show. I went down a rabbit hole on youtube about the guy and it turns out he was an asshole on set and very difficult to work with since SNL days.

Yeah, there are a lot of rumors about him being a real jerk to work with.
Strange really because I’d figure a really funny guy would be kind of laid back…

Val Kilmer,especially during the filming of The Island of Dr Moreau.

Marlon Brando was in the same film, and he was completely batshit at that point.

Apparently that film was the clusterfuck of all time to make, courtesy of Brando and Kilmer and a director who also went off his head. People involved left the business, or needed therapy.

Frances Bavier

Really, Aunt Bee? I knew when they filmed the reunion in the 80s that she had become a recluse and Ron Howard went to her house to try to talk to her about being in it but supposedly she wouldn’t see him.

reply

she was difficult.

reply

Yes, Frances Bauvier was not nearly as warm and sweet as her TV persona. I heard Andy Griffith say that she didn't like him. He wouldn't say anything negative about her. He only said, "There was something about me. She just didn't like me."

She had some harsh words for Howard Morris when he directed the show. Remember him as the nutty Ernest T. Bass? He was directing an episode and he said he gave Miss Bauvier some directions. He said something like, "Pay attention" or "Look over here."

Apparently she didn't like that and got angry that he told her what to do. Well, he WAS the director!
