Top 30 easiest
actors/singers
to work with?)😅
russell crowe and lindsay lohan
I’ve heard Bill Nye is also hard to work with, is that true?
Steven Segal. We all know he just plain out can't act period.
no because you did a top 10 and then a top 20 list on this already, as you have, and will do, for every single other list you've ever done......
I want all of these actors to appear in a movie together
Same
It would probably get cancelled halfway through production 😂
@@joshuamohlman Either that or they leave it in development hell
THAT I would pay to see on the big screen. 🤣🤣🤣
Have it all be improvised, everyone will just be yelling at each other
Being a method actor doesn’t make it ok to be an asshole
I think it's more of an excuse, that or he thinks he's the next Daniel Day Lewis.
It’s an excuse to be a jerk. To quote Robert Patterson, no one walks around being really lovely to everyone and is like yeah I’m so deep in this method right now. (Said in a interview with Jennifer Lopez).
I feel that it's usually an excuse for acting like a jerk and being rude to others.Some years ago I worked in an art studio and one of my coworkers was a " method actress". I used to try to be friendly and say good morning but she always ignored me. Everyone else was friendly enough. I finally asked my bosses wife what her problem was and was told she is " a method actress" which did not impress me.
@@asmodiusjones9563literally dozens of Robert Pattersons. Pattinson?
Well if your character is an asshole it does, actually. Sasha Baron Cohen when he did Borat did not break character in being an obnoxious funnyman. And Anthony Hopkins I once read implied that being cast as Dr. Hannibal Lecter made his relationship/marriage difficult, as he played the part so well (I'm not sure if he was in character during the shooting, and for his partner's sake I guess he was not literally in character).
Very surprised to not see Ezra Miller on this list
Kidding me? You expect them to include someone from the alphabet community? 😂
Hateable or punchable? Yeah. Hard to work with? Idk about that, I haven’t heard anyone say anything along those lines. I do hate him tho
@@tubeyou8623 him and Amber Heard get protected so much by everyone in the media and channels on here it makes you wonder why
Lies again? Different Countries Every Location
maybe it's because Miller's not going to work again
I’ve said it before; I’ll say it again: Chevy Chase got fired from Community for behaving like… Chevy Chase.
Two actors who I never heard one positive word about.. Jerry Lewis and Chevy Chase. At least Lewis had talent. Chase was a one trick pony with that low rent Gerald Ford impression. Never thought he was funny at all.
@@frogger1952 Lewis has also been posthumously 'Me too'd' by several actresses who were young back in the day.
@@Three_Random_Words Yes, I saw some of these actresses interviewed. Even the producers told the girls what to expect if working with Jerry. One girl told him to go pound sand and he then told everyone on the set if anyone was seen speaking to her, they would be fired. A real prince of a guy.
@@frogger1952 His MD telethons in hindsight now seem narcissistic, he seemed joyless too - I like to think it was the stress of knowing that he could be outed and exposed at any time, alas it was too late though.
-=-=-=-=
Back then, the only thing more boring than those telethons was maybe a Bob Hope Special and watching him read lame jokes from cue cards.
one trick , conceited egomaniac .
Dusting Hoffman and method actors in general: on the set of Marathon Man, having observed Hoffman's obsessive method techniques, a fed up Sir Laurence Olivier asked, "My dear boy, why don't you just try acting?"
Misleading. Hoffman was a better screen actor than Olivier. The comment was a joke from Lawrence to Dustin because Dustin was starving himself for a scene and not sleeping. That hardly makes him difficult to work with and Oliver got along with him fine Method actors are not difficult to work with. The media versian of a methos actor would be but not the real thing.
@@stewartkee6115Olivier is considered by many the greatest actor of all time. Untouchable on stage and film. Your ignorance is on a par with saying JK Rowling is a better writer than Shakespeare.
@@slapmyfunkybass grow the fuck up. Olivis is not considered untouchable on screen. He is considered a failure on screen and was actully fired in his first American movie. He himself admitted that he was not that good in the film. He was stiff as a plank in The Prince and the Showgirl and was outclassed by Marilan Monroe. You are the ignorent one. And trying to pretend that you know what you are talking about only makes you look more so. Ray Winstone and Daniel Day Lewis have both pointed out that Olivia knew less about acting than Dustin Hoffman. On Parkinson, DDL says as much.
@@slapmyfunkybass you sound like such a prat when you try to come across as knowing what you are talking about.
@@stewartkee6115 Quick Google search, “Olivier was a towering figure of the British stage and screen, acclaimed in his lifetime as the greatest English-speaking actor of the 20th century. He was the first member of his profession to be elevated to a life peerage.”
Read and weep Buddy.
Why is this tolerated when there's literally a thousand actors that could replace any one of these people!?🤯
All of the other 29 actors combined could not stand the madness of Klaus Kinski.
At least two different directors threatened to murder Kinski. The guy was on another level of "difficult."
He seemed to require a great amount of special comprehension and understanding.
@@benwolk2028 we all know about Herzog, but who was the other director?
@@bryanprillwitz2394 I was slightly wrong. The second was actually a producer referenced by the director David Schmoeller, who directed Kinski in "Crawlspace," and said a producer hoped to kill him for his insurance money.
Tru Dat
Steven Segal...Nobody has anything good to say about working with him. Just ask the cast of SNL.
He is number 18 11:39
"I must be the worst host ever."
"No that would be Steven Segal."
Chevy Chase too
@@alextownley9388 Yes, there are a few.
I had an interview to work in development at his production company. The interviewer immediately told me that I was Segals type and that he would likely sexually harass me if I took the job. I didn’t, and the interviewer actually ended up hooking me up with another job!
I had to stop the video after Seagal because I had to write this. Absolutely true about him. Worked on Code of Honor for three days as an extra. He asked if there were horses behind him because an extra had on high heel shoes (it was a club scene), he really didn't do any of the action scenes, he was there just to do dialogue and one of the worst parts is that two people had to hold up giant cue cards for him to read off of. Like he's so busy in his life that he can't memorize any lines 🙄🙄🙄
Sooo Busy Getting Fat!!
Steven Seagal is a coward, he chickened out of the challenge by the Dirty Dozen.
I agree. Talent was a missing criterium throughout much of this video. In cases like Segal, people are aware that acting talent maybe was an issue. Must we rub it in? He could kill you with your own nose cartilage. Plus people in the business know who you are, in case you want to work again.
I watch a channel called Space Ice and is clearly that the one who do the fights is someone much thinner than him.
Love that channel it really does "Highlight" him in a special way @@sandraaguayocastillo4680
Putting Christian Bale above people like Steven Segal, Jared Leto, and Klaus Kinski (who sexually abused his children, threatened to murder numerous extras and co-stars on various sets, etc.) is insane.
Yeah, when Val Kilmer was that high on the list, I knew it wasn't in order of worst to not worst.
yes, that's crazy
There’s a reason why Chevy Chase hasn’t been asked to return as a host for Saturday Night Live 😂
He's probably no longer invited, let alone no longer welcome. Double-C is on the SNL Blacklist for good, unfortunately.
@@LittleDebbie187717 he was last on SNL in 2013 for the five timers sketch, though granted Steve Martin Short admitted that he probably won't appear on OMITB anytime soon
Chevy got banned from hosting but appearences apparently are okay.
I've heard BM and CC are friends now, even though a sucker punch was thrown back during the first cast of SNL. They should make a movie together, if a dumb enough director and producers can be found.
Bill Murray called him "Medium Talent". And its rumored John Belushi instigated the fight.
You ever notice that method actors never go method when playing nice people? They act like method acting is a blank check for asshole behavior.
Is that from Robert Pattinson? But still, it's true.
100%
I never thought about it that way 🤔
Daniel Day-Lewis method-acted In "Lincoln," certainly in the role of a very virtuous character.
Oooor they still do but no one talks about it. People love to complain. When someone is just nice everyone just takes it in stride.
I read somewhere that Jennifer Lopez doesn't "allow" anyone to look her in the eyes. She thinks she's above them so they shouldn't look her in the eyes. I was always taught it was rude not to look someone in the eye when talking to them. It's amazing how narcissistic and entitled some people truly are.
She's not even pretty, make up does wonder for her a lot
Chris Pine shot a movie in my old town and part of it was in a restaurant. They used the actual staff as extras. The cook is a family friend and he looked Pine in the eye at one point and Pine called a crew member over and spoke to him.
The crew member approached our friend and told him not to look Pine in the eye. He didn't say why.
It was kind of hard not to look at him the way the restaurant was set up and to do their job on the movie like they did in real life.
@@zephyer-gp1ju what a d bag
I would look in her eyes so bad, just for the fun of it!
Her and Ellen both do that
“Marlon Brando wasn’t difficult to work with he just worked a different way”-Francis ford Coppola
Francis Ford Coppola supported a PDF-file, Victor Salva. All these guys are people I wouldn't want to work around / with.
He sabotaged the production... as he always did. Pretty horrible actor who was always too much trouble and he deliberately refused to learn the text and read from cue cards, only to his fanboys to say how genius it was ffs.
Calling seagal an actor is the funniest. 🤣🤣
I think the only criteria is that you have to have been in a movie at some point.
@@soulextracter True.
He's made a few good movies but not for a long time. Under Siege got high ratings from critics and had huge ticket sales and its still rated as one of the best 90s action movies. He aged like milk both as an actor, a martial artist, and a person though.
@@arthas640 I agree. I did enjoy Undersiege.
Well he acts like an actual martial artist when he's a huge fraud so that's something😂
I find it so ironic how both Joan Crawford and Faye Dunaway were on the list considering Faye played Joan in Mommy Dearest. Almost like it was hinting at something there with the casting.
Also, Bette Davis is a witness to both.
@@Claro1993 You really gotta feel for Bette in that case as well as others who unfortunately knew about both firsthand.
@@Claro1993Don't think Davis was exactly a breeze either.
Lot of exaggerations on this videos. I watched a well researched video essay on the rivalry between Crawford and Davis by BeKindRewind. The rivalry and hate was mostly a misogynistic stereotype invented by the press to sell copies and generate attention. They certainly weren’t friends and probably didn’t particularly like each other but their typical roles didn’t overlap so not even reason for rivalry.
If that’s an indication of the reliability of the rest of this video it must be at least half cr*p. I’ll flag the channel as “I am not interested”
@@pansepot1490 True. The narrative that's been pushed is that they were bitter rivals for 40 years. The truth is that they hardly knew one another until they made "... Baby Jane" together where they didn't get along. It was Crawford who took the script to Warner Bros. Studio and suggested Davis for the other role. She would hardly have done so if she'd hated her for decades.
Jlo is Jlo's biggest fan
Her only fan.
Can’t sing, can’t act, is famous for being famous.
What about P. Diddy and hubby Ben? lol
I don't think even they like her honestly
And her mirror(s)
I heard so many Horror stories about working with Chevy Chase.
He's a notorious douchebag
Indeed
@@WatchMojoeh he’s fine. Just gotta get passed the ego
So what. Unless you plan to work with him.
@@randycunningham7318 so what? Chevy the man
Leonard Nimoy was probably the only former cast member who had the patience to tolerate William Shatner cause everybody else stated how they felt about him.
There is a story about Nimoy and Shatner on Star Trek and how Shatner got mad because Nimoy bought his own photographer and Shatner demanded one. The director was walking back and forth between their dressing rooms trying to get them to settle down and come to work.
They must of made up somewhere, Shatner had a short lived talk show and Nimoy was a guest.
Shatner and George Takei still be at it on Twitter
@@mlynettepinky595Shatner thinks George is a moron lol
@@mlynettepinky595 And George Takei has no problem expressing how he feels about Shatner.
In return Shatner made up with Nimoy on the latter’s deathbed
Now we need easiest actors to work with!
Keanu Reeves would be #1!
George Clooney, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson
@@justinhillenburg9286 Hardly, with the ego that Dwayne has.
Scott Bakula
Jack Black. He also meets with fans & would give you the coat off his back.
I'm guessing the main reason January Jones hasn't become a star is that she's a bad actor. Her acting worked for Mad Men because she's supposed to be repressed and uptight. But in other roles, she's been painfully stiff and wooden.
Every scene in Mad Men with her in it, except when she confronts Don about the box she found in his desk, was completely uninteresting. There is a rumor going around that she deployed the reverse casting couch method. She would meet with a director and tell him if she doesn't get the part, she would publicly announce that the director tried to screw her. Word got out fast and no one would even take a meeting with her. A real genius this one.
Plus she has a stripper name.
I’m not sure about the ranking of this list, putting divas like Catherine Heigl and Terry Hatcher ahead of genuine monsters like Klaus Kinski
Kinski was an actual psychopath, or at least borderline. It's astounding he wasn't at the top of the list.
Kinski was genuinely mentally ill. He had schizophrenia and a slew of other psychiatric illnesses.
I think it's because he's less known.
Klaus Kinski should have been #1 on this list, no question. Others, such as Christian Bale, probably don't belong on this list at all.
When you get lucky and then take advantage of your opportunities thinking you are better then everyone else.
That's the story of 90% of these jerks:) I love actors and actresses, but man, can they be divas and jerks at times:)
Than. Better than. It is never better then when comparing anything.
Sole people are better than you.
@@ChromeCobra420 Sole people?
Mr. Grammar Police needs to check their spelling.
@@gregmcfarnon1140 see, mine is an autocorrect issue, but we know it means some.
His is an ignorance issue, which comes from inbreeding and shitty parents.
At least mine is due to technology and not being a complete fucking idiot.
In Bale's defense, I had heard that guy walked into the shot several times. Making them have to redo it. Take all of these with a grain of salt.
Apparently that guy in infamous for not being able to sit still during shots.
I heard an interview with Ron Howard after it. Someone asked him about what happened and he mentioned that what the crew member did was a huge no-no. While Howard didn't excuse the reaction, if the nicest guy in Hollywood is pointing that out...
all of the negativity bores me and I agree.
I have a family member who works in Hollywood and have been on many huge projects, and he has nothing but good things to say about Bale. That one time went a bit far though.
If you are trying to do serious acting in a bad terminator film and the DP keeps messing around in the background, again and again I think losing it is understandable.
Bale doesn't deserve to be on the list! He made one outburst, and it wasn't even his fault. That audio was taken out of context. Replace him with Shannen Doherty!
He is a jerk,Christian deserves to be on there!
Wasn't his fault? Someone else put those words in his mouth?
@@allinone-qz2gi Maybe he deserves some blame, but keep in mind, the DP kept interrupting him and the others during the shot. The DP guy, as Bale said, was being unprofessional. I think Bale's anger kind of justified it. After all, if someone interrupted me at my work, I'd be upset. Granted, maybe not as mad as Bale, but I would be.
@@TheListenerCanon What did Shannen ever do?
@@bkkersey93 She had a reputation of being a diva of not one, but TWO shows and she got kicked out of both of them.
please do "Top Friendliest Actors to work with"
Keanu Reeves would be #1!
Jimmy Smit is apparently an awesome cast-mate. I've heard from more than one person use the words generous and supportive.
Tom Hanks & Michael Palin have quite a nice person reputation
@@erniehudson1except for when Tom Hanks cheated on his wife with a young actress/subordinate on a show he produced of course.
@@JMwhocaresand don’t forget Tom Hanks is an Epstein Client and was on Pedo Island
The problem is that many people are confusing "famous" and "rich" with "important" or "relevant" they're not, they're supposed to be the court jester of our society, nothing more.
That's the crazy thing. Entertainers being super well paid and pampered is definitely a new thing relative to human history. For literal millenia, entertainers were often one of the lowest class of society.
The lack of research in this video is staggering... Apart from Werner Herzog (5 films in common), Klaus Kinski has worked with the same director many times : Alfred Vohrer (8 films in common), Jess Franco (4 films), Antonio Marheriti (4 films), Rudolf Zehetgruber (3 films), Mario Caiano (3 films), Mario Camerini (2 films), F.J. Gottlieb (2 films), Damiano Damiani (2 films), Gianfranco Parolini (2 films), Luigi Bazzoni (2 films), Demofilo Fidani (2 films), Joe D'Amato (2 films) and Sergio Garrone (2 films).
"Lack of research" could be Watchmojo's tagline.
He made very few American movies.
eh, it's watch mojo, king of the click bait channels and about as deep as a puddle
Imagine if all these actors were in the same movie. What a nightmare that set would be.
Then you blow the set up. haha
Narcissists are usually difficult to work with so I guess that’s why I don’t have any respect for most actors.
You are right. but sometimes talent comes with the price of being difficult. Sometimes it's justified, sometimes not
@@thenoble39but it didn't pay off
@@lexkanyima2195 depends in which case
Lohan has been sober and considered good on set for a long time now. Y’all need to get over it.
Yeah I think a lot of people forget that Lindsay had a rough childhood and a strained relationship with her father, that and she suffered with bulimia and drug addiction. I've read that she's a lot better to work with now and is also sober, which is fantastic
They clearly said with her career now on the upswing...which means they recognize things have changed. Lindsay is that you?
@@dr.bherrin Not Lindsay, just saying that there's reasons for her past behaviour. Beside if her behaviour has improved and she's now easier to work with, why is she on the list? 🤔
Get the chapstick, someone's sucking the teet.
@@kuriburgeralot have a lot harder childhood and live then her and don't act like a c word/diva
Chevy Chase should be #1
Chevy Chase is why Home Alone turned out extra great. He was causing chaos on the set of Christmas Vacation. Chris Columbus left the production to direct Home Alone, instead. Columbus is responsible for some rewrites that made the movie, like Old Man Marly. Has Chevy not been an asshole to him, who knows what hole alone would be like.
I missed college classes during his feud with Howard Stern amazingly funny radio.
Can you imagine the absurdity of being an assistant for Leto ? "yeah in order for my new character to be frightening, I need you to fetch me a dead rat and a dead pig and send it to my coworkers. Go buy that at costco or sth I dunno"
What's hilarious is how panned his portrayal of the Joker was and is. It's not like he was even being method in a good acting job..
Brando refused direction from Frank Oz on the set of the movie “The Score” He wouldn’t take orders from “Miss Piggy” so DeNiro had to direct on Brando’s scenes.
Robert’s no picnic himself.
@@vadimlevitin4382 You are correct. "I've heard things... I've heard things..."
Of course Roman Polanski had problems with Faye Dunaway; she’s legal age.

Was NOT expecting Mike Myers
It's been documented for several years now that Myers is a bit of a tool. A pity.
Yeah, a few months ago when I found out MM was a real pain on set I was legit shocked.
Let’s not forget that Alec Baldwin called his own daughter a thoughtless little pig. He couldn’t even work with her, let alone any actors on a set💀😭
I'm glad he didn't shoot colleagues back then.
He was having some personal argument with his daughter that was used in custody hearings by Kim Basinger. Underhanded.
@@redacted2275to be fair it wasn't his fault, the prop department put live ammo in the gun even though blanks and live ammo aren't even allowed on set together to prevent that kind of mix up, and one of them even tampered with evidence. I'm not a Baldwin fan but he's an actor, they hand him the prop and tell him to shoot, it's not the actors job to double check to make sure they're blanks or dummy rounds. If you plug your new vacuum in and the C4 in it explodes is it your fault for not checking for C4 or the guys who made the vacuum?
But he's a family man that loves his family, that's why he couldn't go to prison. 😂
Not to mention mortally wounding someone on set
I saw Chevy Chase film a commercial for a restaurant a couple of years ago. He was extremely nice and had a pleasant attitude throughout the shoot despite a lack of clear direction that would have been frustrating for any veteran actor. I was surprised after hearing the rumors about him being hard to work with.
He's not the most humorous guy in business but if he treats his fans with respect, that's good enough: the people spreading these rumors and Chevy himself are all part of HoIIywood, I take these rumors with a grain of salt.
He may have mellowed out in his older years, but the horror stories about his behavior go all the way back to his SNL days. So I tend to give credence to the stories he was a nightmare to work with.
Where there's smoke, there's fire, as they say.
Except when it's smoke and mirrors @@BethHarmon-yh8ms
@@BethHarmon-yh8ms I tend to agree with you. This actually is the first story I heard about Chase where he wasn't anything but an arrogant pr*ck. Back in the late 90's I think it was, Tom Shales from WaPo wrote a book on the history of SNL. The two cast members that were universally despised; Chevy Chase and Jeananne Garafolo.
You forgot Tom Cruise.
???
Short fuse?
Only if you’re a crewman
👍
Nah he's only gota problem with people above 4 feet. Lol
When James Woods says you are problematic, you are problematic.
(Pertaining to Faye Dunaway)
Put them all on a island reality show or Naked and Afraid elimination season concept. Battle Royal style. 🤣
One of the crew filming Cinderella Man in Toronto, told me that Crowe was a "prima donna". He mentioned that Crowe wasn't getting his own way during the shoot. To take it out on the director and crew, Crowe spent an entire day of acting using his New Zealand accent, instead of the character's New York accent. A day's worth of the shoot was scrapped.
I loved Cinderella Man and he was terrific in it. About a week before the movie was released, Crowe was involved in something that brought bad publicity to him. (I forget exactly what it was) In any event, it really negatively impacted ticket sales. Supposedly, a number of the exhibitors actually allowed people to enter for free and only pay when they exited and if they liked the film.
Steven Seagal had physically hurt his coworkers on sets. Seriously, type his name on the search bar and you will see stories about how horrible this person is compare to other celebrities. I am talking about stunt men who had injuries due his negligence. Also the sexual harassment that he subjected to unsuspecting women. I am surprise that he did made the top five on this list.
I can’t see Gavin Newsom now without seeing American Psycho.
Gov Patrick Bateman: "Let's see Gov DeSantis' card..."
Funny, I can’t see a dumpster fire without seeing Newsom.
No Klaus Kinski on the first place? AKA the man who was such a pain in the ass that people on the set genuinely proposed the director to have him killed?
Anne Hathaway didn’t do Knocked Out because she thought it was sexist as well. She was asked to do it first
So they’re both weird and full of themselves. Thanks for the heads up
Was that like a boxing sequel to Knocked Up?
well, at least she turned it down. Katherine Heigl agreed to star in it and then talked smack. Why even starring in it then if it was so awful?
@@GodofMMA23 no she was asked first to be in the movie before KH
@@debbylou5729 They both are not weird. They felt it was sexist. Ms. Hathaway just turned it down
Steven Seagal physically abused people and you rank him below others who were just jerks????

Lol, what a clown.
And he slagged off other actors who practise martial arts.
And Bill & Chase really worked together in Cadshack and really didn’t mix together at all
They only had one scene together
You mean rarely?
Lindsey Lohan can’t swim a stroke, but she sure knows every dive in town!
Who writes these?
Shannen Doherty is supposedly pretty difficult. She was fired from two shows, and even if you take her and Holly Marie Combs' at face value that Alyssa Milano is the only reason she got fired, that goes against what others have said in the past, including Luke Perry, who wrote in his bio that he knew Shannen was being difficult on Charmed and was going to go to the producers to say, "it's her or me" regarding herself and Alyssa. There are other instances of people complaining about her behavior outside of those two shows as well
Wow, I would hate to be higher on the list than Steven Seagal.
Hugh Grant is missing from this list.
I remember I had a supervisor told me when he was just a kid there was a movie that Steven Segal was being filmed near his neighborhood and he was a fan. He and his little brother spotted him walking taking a smoke break and they went up to him to ask for an autograph and he responded “Beat it you f@$%#ing brats”. Since that day he told me he refuses to watch anything he is in.
Yeah, Chevy Chase is a #1 A-hole to work with, on screen or off. He may be a goof ball, but he's so egotistical and manipulative.
I always take these stories with a grain of salt but, I had neighbors that rode first class on a plane, sitting next to him. They said they left him alone. They added he lived down to his reputation and treated the flight attendants worse than dirt.
That's such a pity. Sometimes, people may have great talent but their behavior can create unpleasant situations for everyone around them.
@@ClassicCinema-ThenAndNownot true. He’s just trying to be funny
So what. His movies are great.
And Fond Of The N-Word - Just Ask Donald Glover.
I forget that Christian Bale is a method actor and now I’m just imagining what he was like in American Psycho. That cast and crew must have been so unsettled by him with the character he was playing. Don’t get me wrong a little bit of method acting can be a good skill to have as an actor and definitely takes time and is impressive to do, but you can’t go so far as to let the character take over your entire life because I can imagine that that could be dangerous. Especially, if it’s a bad/villain or psychotic or toxic character.
Apart from the blowup on the set of Terminator Salvation, no one has really complained about Bale. He probably doesn't even belong on this list, much less in the top 10.
@@benwolk2028 I'm with you. Aside from that, what other bad thing he did during the shooting?
@@TheListenerCanon Right. Not to excuse his behavior but my understanding is that the cinematographer he yelled at had been repeating his disruptive behavior for some time. And he and Bale went on to finish the film without further incident. Nor can I think of any other incidents in Bale's career that would land him on this list.
If we're all to be judged by the worst moments in our lives, none of us will pass muster.
@@benwolk2028 some of these people on the list shouldn't be on it like Christian Bale
And Ed Norton is only difficult with his directors or ones he feels didn't "prove their worth" to him
He had no issues working with Stan Lee (his idol) or Ridley Scott
Well, Bale did supposedly use Tom Cruise as the basis of his motivation.
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Interesting to know. I heard about only some of them on the list.. I think they weren't difficult to work with, when they were struggling actors in the beginning.
It really seems like being “method” is just a lame excuse to get away with being awful. The Jared Leto gifts thing was absolutely ridiculous and he should have been laughed out of the business for it.
Be careful when you ask Alec Baldwin another shooting…
january jones is on the list because of what one young boy said??
Quite a few more have agreed.
@@mckenna8663he was not getting along
And What Zach Galafinakis Said About Her Too.
@@rhiannonyoung8962this is the first time hearing about january jones. I was waiting for more examples but didn't hear anymore.
So Hoffman thinks slapping someone you're divorcing is ok? It's never ok to do that, under any circumstance
He supposedly did it to "help her get into the mood" for the next scene. He probably told her, "You'll thank me later." He honestly thought he was reponsible for her success.
@@RatedArggg wow. Charming fellow. A wonder his marriage broke down (I know it takes two and all, but still)...
When I lived in Virginia, I lived a couple minutes drive from the lake where they shot 'What About Bob?' ... such a great movie!
Even Pierce Brosnan had an issue with Teri Hatcher on the set of Tomorrow Never Dies.
Steven Seagal? I thought this list was only for actors.
Happy to find Klaus Kinski has not been forgotten, as I understand that he is lesser know to an American millenial audience. However, if you do more research on him, you will see that there would be no one else to take top spot #1 on this list. Actually, you should put him on #1, leave the following 20 places empty with maybe the only exception of Marlon Brando, and then continue with the rest of the list. This would give you an idea of Kinski's craziness. Werner Herzog, the director who somehow survived doing five films with Kinski, even made a highly entertaining documentary about his love-hate relationship ("Kinski, my best fiend", 1999). Just an example: While filming Fitzcarraldo in the South American jungle, a local worker got bitten by a snake and only survived because he started his chain saw and cut off his own leg (!). When everybody tried to take care of this poor lad, Kinski felt that somehow he wasn't the center of attention any more and went on a shouting spree because alledgedly his coffee was too cold. At least that is how Herzog reports the story ...
I was a medic in the Army and I don't believe that story. You might be able to stand the first half inch but all ther way?
Alec Baldwin no surprise
I don’t get why people still think Edward Norton is the best Hulk. When he was very difficult to be around on set. I’m glad Mark Rufflo. Is the Hulk now.
Mark Ruffalo is great in Poor Things
@@rockingbeat Yes he is.
Nortons hulk movie kinda blew.
Oh please, the movie ruffalo's hulk was good in was the first Avengers. Besides that movie, his hulk sucked. Edward Norton actually treated the hulk with respect.
I have no idea what Mark is like to work with, but I’ve personally never liked him on screen.
A special mention goes to George Peppard. He originally played Blake Carrington in Dynasty. He got fired by the producers because he wasn't satisfied with the script. He got Melinda Culea who played Triple A fired from the A Team. He refused to communicate with Mr T due to jealousy.
Patricia Neal couldn't stand him while filming Breakfast at Tiffany's. If you haven't see the move, Neal plays a middle aged woman who is paying for the company of a younger man, Peppard. Peppard had a lot of problems playing a character subservient to a woman and didn't feel that someone as good looking as him would have to take handouts from an older woman. It's called ACTING!!!
There’s always two sides to everything.
That whole Christian Bale incident is blown out of proportion. Being interrupted during intense scenes can be very infuriating
@@User1975- why did he walk through his scene? That will piss anyone off. He's not wrong
Plus, it was taken out of context. You didn't hear what caused him to burst.
It's a shame this isolated incident is still used to define Bale as a person. He admitted he was wrong, apologized without excuses, and I'm not aware of any poor on-set behavior in the years since. Hopefully none of us are judged solely on our worst moments.
@@benwolk2028 this channel worshiped Ellen, Oprah and Jennifer Lawrence known for being really shitty people
He actually made amends with the guy afterwards. He actually knew him personally.
Jim Carrey, Tom Cruise, Barbra Streisand, Marilyn?
Steven Seagal better be on here
11:37 Yes
Lets remember that Hollywood is known to throw celebrities names into the mud.
To keep them Humble
And not above other humans
Can you do Top 30 most easiest actors to work with?
This list is not enough to cover all the actors who have attitude problems. James Franco is one of them, to say the least.
You missed Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Nye, and Ellen DeGeneres
Not Bill Nye!! Really?
Bill Nye? Really?
Allegedly for Bill Nye. The other two for sure.
You pretty much nailed it no surprise here😅
Hollywood could use less Jared Leto and Roman Polanskis.
Don't have to worry about Seagal, He's hanging with his buddy Putin in Russia.
You should do a video on the Top 20 Easiest Actors to work with I’ll start:
Tom Hanks
Ewan McGregor
Brendan Fraser
Emma Stone
Keanu Reeves
Adam Sandler
Pierce Brosnan, Allan Rickman (RIP), Hugh Jackman...
#1 KLAUS KINSKI by a mile
Where is Tom Cruise on this list 😮
I knew someone that worked at Sony when J-Lo was a recording artist with them. He said that all employees were instructed not to look at her in the face whenever she came into the offices.
glad she’s getting cancelled
They probably wouldn't anyway. They'd be looking at her big fat cellulite arse.
"Don't look her in the eye"?
" Game on". 😅
@@ianhill4585 He did say it gave an excuse for looking at her ass.
Well,she has accomplished her goal by wearing blouses and dresses cut down to her 😨
Just another reason that the hollywood star is finally going out. Today, anyone can be a star, and if your head gets too big, there's always someone ready to take your place. Be humble, be kind and don't think you're better than anyone (except hollywood actors, we're all better than them).
Bette Davis said Faye Dunaway was the most unprofessional actress she ever worked with in her career in movies.
Put the phone down Russell
Seagal should be on top of this list.
Narcissists
5:09 I really hope she threw her piss on Roman Pulanski.. He is a bit off the chart, horrible, from these actors listed.
What about Peter Sellers, i've heard he was terrible to work with
No Kevin Spacey?
Cybill Shepard and Bruce Willis didn't get along on Moonlighting,which was sadly true,the 5th season was very dissapointing.
But it is onscreen
@@lexkanyima2195They didn't get along off screen.
@@jademusic1211 why ?
@@lexkanyima2195Regarding Bruce Willis, I know that he is ill now, and I am most sorry about that. But, the guy was a jerk! I encountered him just before his Moonlighting fame. There are lots of stories where people met Bruce Willis, and it wasn't always a pleasant encounter.
@@theequalizer9154 but that's Bruce's ego, you have to know him well.
Not to mention Baldwin's difficultly with pointing weapons at people.
How is Tom Cruise not on this list??
I've never understood the appeal of Shia "Laboof", apart from some of his comedic sidekick roles, such as the 2008 Indiana Jones movie
Hey, in Germany and Europe it was Klaus Kinski.
I’m very surprised James Woods, Tommy Lee Jones, and Terrence Howard were not even mentioned on this list. I’ve heard tons of horror stories about all three of those men being absolute nightmares to work with.
A friend of mine was in a movie (as an extra) with James Woods and said he could be a little flaky, but definitely not a nightmare.
When Bruce Willis was cast on Moonlighting, it was his first big gig. Sheppard was an established star. I bet he was payed more than her from the get go!
