4 Nov
Summary
- Dane's memoir details a physical altercation with co-star Josh Duhamel.
- The fight stemmed from Duhamel repeatedly pulling Dane's tie during a scene.
- Dane apologized to Duhamel for his aggressive reaction to the pain.
Eric Dane's memoir, "My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments," published recently, details a heated confrontation with fellow actor Josh Duhamel on the set of the NBC series "Las Vegas." The incident occurred in Season 2, when Dane, guest-starring, was dealing with a herniated disc in his neck.
Dane requested Duhamel refrain from pulling his tie during a fight scene, a request Duhamel initially agreed to. However, during filming, Duhamel repeatedly grabbed Dane's tie, causing Dane immense pain. This led to Dane, in a moment of frustration, initiating a physical altercation with Duhamel.
Dane later expressed regret for his actions in the memoir, stating he should have walked away from the situation. He extended an apology to Duhamel for his aggressive response. Duhamel himself had previously discussed his intense method acting on "Las Vegas," which sometimes made him difficult to work with.
"Las Vegas" aired for five seasons from 2003 to 2008, with Duhamel in a leading role. Dane's guest appearance was in 2004, before his breakthrough role on "Grey's Anatomy" two years later.
