It seems like every job has at least one coworker that everybody in the office avoids like the plague. In Hollywood, some celebrities have earned a serious reputation among their co-stars, so much so that other actors don't want to work with them. Here are some celebs who flat out refused to work together.
The crime epic The Irishman was a grand reunion of Hollywood legends, but Mickey Rourke wasn't invited. According to Page Six, he claimed on an Italian TV show that he was in line for a part in the film until one of the stars stepped in and put the blocks on it.
Rourke admitted that his problems with Robert De Niro began in 1987 when they appeared opposite one another in the psychological horror movie Angel Heart. Rourke grew up idolizing De Niro, but his opinion changed after he introduced himself on set. He revealed,
"About five minutes later, [De Niro] comes over. He said, 'I think it's better if we don't talk because of [our] characters in the movie. It's better if we don't say hello, talk or anything.' It hurt my feelings a little bit, 'cause I looked up to him."
Producers denied his claims in a statement, saying:
"Mickey Rourke was never asked to be in The Irishman nor was he ever even thought of, discussed or considered to be in the movie."
Back in the early '90s, Mark Wahlberg was better known as Marky Mark, the frontman of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. He wasn't taken very seriously in Hollywood, and when Leonardo DiCaprio found out that Marky Mark was being considered for a role in The Basketball Diaries, he apparently freaked out. Keep watching the video to see the Co-stars who refused to work together.
