yeah I remember reading Mathau's response to being asked about his name being under Streisand's name on the bill

"Can you imagine being under Barbra Streisand? Get me a sick bag - I may throw up"

Harrison ford and Ridley Scott on "blade Runner", and to a lesser extent Sean Young

Outkast_IRE · 12-04-2012 11:48AM

Jar Jar binks and Liam Neeson.
You could see Neeson wanted to snap his cgi neck

isn't Sean Young a bit of a lunatic?

didn't James Woods get a barring order so she couldn't come within a few feet of him and his fiancée, after she left a disfigured doll on the doorstep of his house, after filming "The Boost"

De Niro couldn't stand Cybill Shepard when making Taxi Driver

The best has to be Faye Dunaway and Roman Polanski filming 'Chinatown':

According to Peter Biskind's book 'Easy Riders, Raging Bulls,' when Dunaway asked for her character's motivation, Polanski would shout, "'Say the f*cking words. Your salary is your motivation.' Things came to a head, literally, when Polanski objected to a wayward hair of hers that was ruining a shot and instead of asking her to tuck it out of the way, simply plucked it from her head.

Their enmity escalated into one of the most infamous on-set incidents of all time: Polanski wouldn't let the actress take a break during a scene in her car, although she desperately needed to pee, so Dunaway threw a coffee cup full of urine in Polanski's face.

Also heard about Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson didn't get along in A Star is Born. So much so that Kristofferson used to eat onions before the love making scenes just to annoy her.

Apparently Christopher Plummer despised kids.

We could go on all day about Werner Herzog and Klaus Kinski's complicated relationship.

What's that based on? I have heard many actors say great things about Brando in interview, appartently he was bit of a prankster.

Orson Welles and Peter Sellers hated each other-apparently.Made filming casino royale quite difficult for them I'm sure.

I have a vague memory of reading that Shaw was delibertly a dick to him as their characters weren't supposed to like each other up until the bonding session on the boat, after that they got on well

Ahh that one is well know, Shaw scared the hell out of Dreyfuss, clash of acting styles, Dreyfuss was a motivation actor while Shaw spent his spare time getting pissed with the casting directors son and a couple of other guys from the set given the job to keep him quiet.

foxyboxer · 12-04-2012 02:14PM

I recall details about Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey having a personality clash on Batman Forever and of course Val Kilmer having a clash with most people.

Cardinal Richelieu · 12-04-2012 02:21PM

The classic one is Beth Davis and Joan Crawford, they even hated each other off set. While filming ‘What Happened to Baby Jane?’, Davis actually kicked Crawford in the scene when she pushed her down the stairs. In return, when Bette had to drag Joan off her bed, Joan put on a weighted diver’s belt underneath her costume, making her heavier to drag. Davis said of Crawford was “single handedly responsible for the syphilis outbreak in America.

Ted: "What about Val Kilmer, i hear he's a right bástard"

I remember there being alot of conflicts on Miami Vice between Jaime Foxx and Colin Farrell. The jist was Foxx was a right premadonna after winning his oscar and had a large entourage and a number of demands while Farrell was the height of professionalism.

Foxx also play a character "Mothafcka Jones" in the film Horrible Bosses. When asked in the movie why hes called that he replied "cause I'm a mothafcka"
The character was originally called "Cócksucka Jones" but Foxx demanded the name changed as he didn't find it funny and thus ruined the joke in the movie.

Whoopi Goldberg despised Demi Moore during filming of Ghost, based on her interviews after.

Shatner and Takei weren't the best of pals either, you could see that at the Roast Of Shatner when Shatner kissed him.:)

Although Gene Wilder & Richard Pryor seemed to have chemistry on screen, Off screen they were not friends.Gene Wilder claimed that Richard Pryor's cocaine addiction made him unpleasant to be around.

I think Jamie Foxx should have gone with the original since he is in the closet;)

One story I heard was around the movie "The Score" , directed by Frank Oz and staring Brando, Robert DeNiro and Edward Norton. Apparently things got so bad between Brando and Oz that he ended up simply referring to him as Ms. Piggy when ever his name was mentioned.

According to Joel Schumacher, Val Kilmer did him two really big favours, the first was agreeing to play Batman in "Batman Forever", the second one was saying that he would never play Batman again for Schumacher. There is also a report of Kilmer playing a game of shove the director during the filming of that movie, not the best way to get along with folks in Tinseltown.

Great story i read before was that knife wielding badass "Billy" in the film Predator was made have a bodyguard with him wherever he went on set. Why? Because he was a complete nutter and his bodyguard was there to protect the crew incase he decided to attack anyone

Yea the story goes, he was prone to bar fights, had a fight everytime he went to a bar, so the insurance company were already worried about shooting in the jungle, without a claim for assault from Sonny Landham.:D

Ford did have his disagreements with Scott about the story and direction, but he got on with the job. Plus Ford did the voiceover at the film company's behest, against Scott's wishes, but Ford happily admitted that was wrong later.

As for Sean Young: she was very unhappy on the set of Wall Street, kept trying to get producers to swap her small role for Daryl Hannah's bigger role. DH wasn't that happy with the role, and Oliver Stone wasn't happy with DH, so Sean might have got it too, had she not pushed so hard. Charlie Sheen was so annoyed with Sean's attitude, he stuck a sign on her back that read "I am a <C-word>".

Depends on who you talk to. Another report here says Bill was the problem, bad-mouthing Lucy and at one point hitting director McG in the head.
PS: Charlie's Angles? Well, I suppose he was a sharp operator ...
