Shia LaBeouf responds to Olivia Wilde’s comment about firing him from the upcoming film ‘Don’t Worry Darling’. According to the sources of Variety, LaBeouf responded to Wilde’s comment by saying he quit the film by himself. He totally denied the claim of being fired.
Wilde’s Revelation
On August 24, in a conversation with Variety magazine Olivia Wilde the director of the film said that she fired Shia LaBeouf because of his alleged controversies.
She said, “His process was not conducive to the ethos that I demand in my productions. He has a process that, in some ways, seems to require combative energy, and I don’t personally believe that is conducive to the best performances. Ultimately, my responsibility is to the production and to the cast to protect them. That was my job.”
Later on, she added, “A lot came to light after this happened that really troubled me, in terms of his behaviour,”
However, it seemed like she fired him because of his alleged abuse and sexual battery of ex-girlfriend FKA Twigs.
Shia LaBeouf said he quit the film
Responding to Wilde’s claim LaBeouf responded that he didn’t get fired from the film but it is he who quit the film. Therefore he said he took an exit from the film because he didn’t find time for rehearsing. After Wilde’s cover story was published in Variety the actor sent an email to her, where he wrote;”……. What inspired this email today is your latest Variety story. I am greatly honoured by your words on my work; thank you, that felt good to read. I am a little confused about the narrative that I was fired, however. You and I both know the reasons for my exit. I quit your film because your actors & I couldn’t find time to rehearse. I have included as a reminder the screenshots of our text exchange on that day, and my text to Tobey.”
The actor is facing a lot of backlash because of his alleged abuse of his ex-girlfriend singer FKA Twigs.
