Murray Wants Mcg Dead
By WENNTuesday, October 20, 2009
BILL MURRAY has less than fond memories of working with moviemaker MCG on CHARLIE’S ANGELS - he thinks the director deserves to die a horrible death.
The two men famously fell out on the set of the 2000 action film, starring Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore, with McG claiming the surly star had headbutted him during a disagreement.
Murray refutes the headbutt story, but admits he and the filmmaker disliked each other immensely.
In an interview with London newspaper The Times, Murray says, “He deserves to die! He should be pierced with a lance.”
The Lost In Translation star refuses to confirm reports he also fell out with Angel Lucy Liu on set, allegedly telling her she couldn’t act, but questions about his relationship with the actress prompted Murray to growl about his rules for co-stars.
He adds, “I will dismiss you completely if you are unprofessional and working with me… When our relationship is professional, and you’re not getting that done, forget it.”
