The director said he was going to be bigger than Tom Cruise, and I'm sure he would have been if he could act.
'D', the actor was arrogant as hell, trying to sleep with all the costume department and any woman he saw, failing everytime.
Towards the end of the shoot, he and the Director started to fall out as he would ad lib badly the whole time. After one take he walked off set, quickly followed by the director and the crew were told to take 5 minutes off.
At the end of the break, we were all called back onto set, where we waited for the director and star, who didn't turn up, so I was sent to find them.
Eventually after five minutes of walking around, checking trailers and production offices, I heard raised voices from a room behind the set. I walked closer, putting my ear to the door.
'You're a fucking asshole', 'D' screamed at the director.
'I don't give a fuck, if you undermine me again in front of everyone....'
As I listened my walkie went off, 'You found them yet?' the A.D asked.
'Yeah, but I think you should come and deal with this.'
The A.D raced over to where I was as crashes could be heard from inside. As the door was opened, 'D' was taking a swing at him, shirt halfway off as the Director looked like he was going to grapple the 'star'.
We stopped for the day after that.
I heard that when it came to ADR the film, they did get into a fight, taking swings at each other.
'D' from what I see, went on to not do much, mostly TV and the director went on to make one more film, before everyone realised he was a talentless hack after all.
