27 Sep
Summary
- Lucy Liu confronted Bill Murray over insults during filming.
- Drew Barrymore supported Liu's stance against unacceptable behavior.
- Murray did not return for the Charlie's Angels sequel.
During the filming of the 2000 film Charlie's Angels, actress Lucy Liu experienced an on-set dispute with co-star Bill Murray. The conflict arose when Murray, who had missed a rehearsal session where changes to a scene were discussed, reportedly became upset and verbally abusive towards Liu.
Liu recounted the incident, explaining she chose to defend herself against the unacceptable insults. She stated that regardless of status, no one should be demeaned. Drew Barrymore, another star of the film, later shared on her talk show that Liu firmly rejected Murray's behavior.
Barrymore emphasized the cast's unified support for Liu's actions. Murray did not participate in the subsequent Charlie's Angels sequel, a decision widely believed to be linked to this on-set disagreement.
