Actors

If I’m directing a big budget feature film and my lead actor is being a nightmare to work with, and I can’t fire him/her, here’s some things I’d try to do.

Have a talk with him/her and explain acting like a primadonna isn’t working for either of you let alone the rest of the cast and crew. Try to strike a deal that appeals to his/her ego or pocketbook. Give him enough rope and he might hang himself. Ask the actor’s agent what going on. Try to find a workable solution so the movie isn’t destroyed. Also discuss with the rest of the cast and crew to work around him/her.
