James Gunn has revealed that he also has a list of actors that he will never work with. The Guardians of the Galaxy and The Suicide Squad director opened up on Twitter, while replying to a fan, of the reasons he has certain people on the list. Click inside to read more… James was asked during his Q&A what he would do if “you as a director have an actor who isn’t working out for any number of reasons (their process, temperament, lack of chemistry, etc) do you talk to them and give them a chance or two or do you quick trigger it and recast?” “If it’s their temperament & it’s serious, I’ll immediately recast,” he replied. “Life’s too short for assholes.
Same if they’re repeatedly very late, which I hate, or unprepared. I have a long list of actors, A-list & otherwise, I’ll never work with for these reasons.” James went on, “But if it’s performance related, & they’re putting their all into it, I’ll do everything on my end to make it work until it’s absolutely clear the quality of the project will be perceivably harmed if we don’t recast.
This can happen with really talented actors who just don’t fit.” Going off of his answer there, another fan then asked how he realizes which actors are “assholes” and whether he compares notes with other filmmakers. “I always do due diligence on actors & production heads with directors, actors, producers & crew members I trust,” he replied. “If it checks out they’re jerks (not just cranky or curmudgeons but actual jerks) or irresponsible I don’t hire them.
Some actors I already know never to even consider.” James then clarified that actors will get paid in full if they are recast during production.
