Blind Gossip Exclusive Blind Item - Drama Over Lazy Costar
More drama from a major film set!
This very famous lead actor has had it with his lazy costar!
Our Lead Actor actor prides himself on being very involved in the production process. He often serves as producer, he is very involved in the staffing of both cast and crew, and he even likes to do his own stunts in his action films.
Lead Actor is not at all happy with his costar on his current film. Much of his displeasure has to do with Costar’s work ethic.
"He’s incredibly lazy. He was cool about doing a lot of his own stunts on [other films], but on this film, he’s having his stunt man do EVERYTHING!"
This is definitely not making his bosses happy.
"[Lead Actor] likes to do his own stunts because you get long cuts and better continuity. It makes the whole film more believable because you have an actor actually acting. [Director] like to use long cuts, too.
When you use a stunt man, you get lots of short cuts and no actor to bring emotion to it. Because [Lazy Costar] sits in his trailer while the stunt man does all the work, they’re now stuck with all these short cuts. It kills the the continuity of the scene, you lose the character, you lose the emotion. Costs more time and money in post, too. That’s what they’re dealing with here, and they are really pissed about it!"
The result of all this?
"[The Lead Actor] and [The Director] are sorry that they hired this jerk in the first place. Too unprofessional, too lazy. Can’t fire him for this one, but he will not be asked back for the next installment of the franchise. They won’t work with him again!"
Maybe Lazy Costar can go stand on the unemployment line with his friend?

Chloe Grace Moretz Talks Fat Shaming
Chloe Grace Moretz recently sat down for an interview with Variety. In case you think things had gotten better out there for women in the industry, she cures you of that delusion really quickly. Here she recounts her treatment by some of her male co-stars:
“This guy that was my love interest was like, ‘I’d never date you in a real life,’ and I was like, ‘What?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, you’re too big for me’ — as in my size. It was one of the only actors that ever made me cry on set...[he was] 23, 24 or 25, [I was 15 years old at the time]. I went bawling to my brother and he was like, ‘What happened?’ And I was like, ‘He told me I was too big.’ And my brother was like, ‘What just happened?’ My brother was so angry. I had to pick it up and go back on set and pretend he was a love interest, and it was really hard…It just makes you realize that there are some really bad people out there and for some reason, he felt the need to say that to me. You have to kind of forgive and not forget really, but it was just like wow. It was jarring. I look back on it and I was 15, which is really, really dark.
I’ve had a younger male lead ostracize me and bring up fake issues just to try and put me in my place, and make things up to the director…things that are crazy, things that I would never do, unprofessional things that would make no sense. I’ve had an actor do that to me. It’s crazy. They have this inferiority issue, and I’m like, ‘You are completely equal to me, you are no different than me. I just happen to be the lead in this movie, and I don’t know why just because you are kind of the smaller character that you’re pushing me into a corner to try and put me down. Little snips that just put you down.”
On the pay gap being only part of the problem:
“Even if you’re being paid equally, it’s the little things, especially if the male lead is bigger than you — you aren’t listened to as much and you take a back seat.”
On still having to fight to get work:
“Now it’s, ‘Oh, you’re too known, your face is in too many things.’ And I’m like, well, if I were unknown, then I would not be known enough...I was told I was too blond and they couldn’t cast two blond girls in the same movie. I was like, ‘Okay, because I’m blond and there’s another blond in the movie, you can’t cast two?’ That’s such a masculine way of looking at things. I deal with it every day. You’ve got to stick to your guns. I always say get me in the room and make me audition and I’ll try and win it and at least I’ll know then that I did my best and I gave my all, but if you just look at me and you say no, then I don’t know what to tell you. But you know, when one door closes, another one opens and that’s the way it is so don’t fight it. I never try and push myself on someone who doesn’t want me for the role.”

Barbara Cook Has Passed Away
Broadway veteran Barbara Cook has passed away at the age of 89 from respiratory failure. Cook originated the role of Cunegonde in Leonard Bernstein's Candide in 1956, and the role of Marian the Librarian in The Music Man in 1957, for which she won a Tony Award. She continued to perform on Broadway until the early '70s. One of her signature songs was Vanilla Ice Cream from the musical She Loves Me. She is survived by her son Adam LeGrant, who told the New York Post, "And vanilla ice cream is the last thing she ate -- the God's honest truth."
