9 Times Actors Got Into Fistfights On Set

1. Charlie's Angels - Lucy Liu Versus Bill Murray

People love Bill Murray so much that they tend to overlook the many, many stories about his bad behaviour; his temper tantrums on-set are infamous and Dan Aykroyd once called his frequent mood swings €œThe Murricane€. He was clearly having a bad day on Charlie€™s Angels then, when he stopped the rehearsal for a scene with the three lead actresses;he said to Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore €œI get why you€™re here, and you€™ve got talent€ before turning to Lucy Liu and saying €œbut what in the hell are you doing here. You can€™t act!€ Liu became €“ quite rightly €“ furious and lashed out at Murray, throwing angry punches while he tried to back away. The two of them were broken apart and spent the next twenty minutes screaming at each other from across the room. This wasn€™t the only clash Murray had on the film; director McG claims Murray head-butted him during a row over a scene, though Murray denies it ever happened; then he wished death on the director for saying it.
