The actor played Michael Dawson in the hit ABC series, which follows survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 who crash on a mysterious island, and in the season two episode “Two for the Road”, the character shockingly killed two fellow survivors in cold blood. The scene in question effectively cut short Michelle Rodriguez (Ana-Lucia) and Libby actor Cynthia Watros’ time on the show, with the pair having just joined as season regulars earlier that season. In a new interview with The Independent, Perrineau alleged that one of the actors was so upset by the development, they blocked him from their lives. ‘Lost’ star Harold Perrineau (Michael) was at centre of show’s …

Olivia Munn Calls Out Male Co-Star Who Derailed Filming

Olivia Munn Calls Out Male Co-Star Who Derailed Filming

Published by Sam Flores

Olivia Munn is opening up about her experience with a male actor who felt uncomfortable with a film’s seemingly feminist slant. Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show this week, the X-Men: Apocalypse actor said she’d pledged long ago to focus on film and TV projects featuring female characters who weren’t reliant on their male counterparts. One such project, Munn said, required her to appear alongside a male co-star who objected to a scene in which his character’s life would be spared, thanks to Munn’s character’s aid. “If you read the script, it was that he was guarding his side, I was guarding my side, then we switch sides and then there’s a guy that was coming for him — he was gonna shoot him in the back — so I shoot him,” she recalled. “And then we’re about to shoot, and somehow, I guess he didn’t read the script, and in that moment, he realised, ‘Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. She can’t save me. No, no. She can’t save me.’” Watch Munn’s Drew Barrymore Show …

During a recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, the actress recalled an unnamed actor refusing to film a scene in which her female character saved his. “There have been a few times where I’ve been filming something — and my character was either like CIA, or a cop, or something — and there’s been scenes where my character has been the one to save the other character,” Munn explained. In this specific instance, the Your Friends & Neighbors star said they were filming a gunfight scene in an underground bunker. “If you read the script, it was that he was guarding his side, I was guarding my side, then we switch sides and then there’s a guy that was coming for him — was gonna shoot him in the back — so I shoot him,” Munn recounted. “And then we’re about to shoot and, somehow, I guess he didn’t read the script and in that moment, he realized, …

Meghan Markle is showing that there’s nothing but love between her and her former Suits co-stars, if but a little delayed. The Duchess of Sussex was brought up a couple times by her former co-star and on-screen love interest Patrick J. Adams during his appearance on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. When Patrick was asked by host Amanda Hirsch whether he’d ever received a handwritten note by Meghan, he confirmed that he did, and even called her penmanship “impeccable,” and Amanda added that she’d received one too, alongside her shipment of As ever jam. “Did you? You got a jam? I did not get a jam,” he exclaimed, with Amanda saying he needs to “get on the list.” She even quipped that she hadn’t yet opened the jam because she considered it too sacred, with her handwritten letter from Meghan kept in its own box.
