Melissa McCarthy Once Worked on a Toxic Set That Made Her ‘Physically Ill’
, McCarthy—who’s starring as the villainous Ursula in Disney’s live-action Little Mermaid remake—revealed that she once fell “physically ill” due to the toxic nature of a set she was working on. “I did work for someone once who ran such a volatile, hostile set that it made me physically ill,” the Oscar nominee said. “My eyes were swelling up, I was absorbing all of this nuttiness.”According to McCarthy, the toxicity on set stemmed from one person in particular, whom she did not name. “There were people weeping, visibly so upset by this one person,” she said.
