Melissa McCarthy is opening up about a film set that left her "physically ill" because of the "hostile" work conditions. In a recent interview, the actress, 52, did not name the film set or the person who made the movie set "volatile." "I did work for someone once who ran such a volatile, hostile set that it made me physically ill.

My eyes were swelling up, I was absorbing all of this nuttiness," McCarthy told The Observer.  "There were people weeping, visibly so upset by this one person.

And I think that’s why the manipulation worked, because to get to me, this person would fire people I loved, which kept me quiet.

It was very effective," she continued. "The Little Mermaid" actress recalled initially being quiet and hesitant to speak-up, but she eventually reached her breaking point. "Then one day, I was like, 'It stops today!' I just kept saying to them, ‘It stops, it stops.' And I know now I’ll never keep quiet again," McCarthy said.
