He showed up late to the set after missing his flight in Los Angeles. Joe Gruberman is the sole producer on the project, and when reached by THR, he declined to comment on the situation.ĭick’s small gig on the film seemed to go off the rails from the start.
President James Buchanan (Auberjonois) hoping to land a ransom, but it seems that nobody is interested in getting the body back. Emmet Walsh in the story of a woman who steals the corpse of former U.S. Written and directed by Bruce Dellis, Raising Buchanan stars Rene Auberjonois, Amanda Melby, Shannon Whirry and M. People are so sensitive,” Dick added, without elaborating on exactly what he said. “They were so incensed by what I was saying. “Can I tell you my side of it?” Dick then asked before asserting that the filmmakers could’ve been upset that he was talking about or perhaps defending Weinstein, with whom he made two films. He claimed that the temperature on set in Arizona was delicate, too, and that he contributed to that by bringing up Weinstein. (Also well-documented is his history of exposing his genitals in public and onstage.) “I do understand that the temperature in the world right now is delicate.” I don’t expose myself anymore,” Dick said by telephone.
At first, the actor made light of the situation, joking that “my middle name is ‘misconduct.’ They know what they signed up for.” However, he followed up with a denial that he ever groped anyone on set. But the claims can be seen as more unsettling in today’s cultural climate in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal (or ousted figures like Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, Amazon Studios’ Roy Price, political journalist Mark Halperin, The Loud House creator Chris Savino and the list of accused sexual harassers goes on, and now includes Kevin Spacey and director James Toback).ĭick said he’s aware of his reputation. To anyone who has followed Dick’s legal troubles, his well-documented history of outlandish comedy and his often intentionally offensive behavior, his dismissal may not come as a surprise. Though he vehemently denied groping claims, he said it’s possible that he licked people and he confirmed that he did make advances on others. Late Monday, THR spoke to Dick, who confirmed he was let go from his small role in the film. It’s unclear if those involved were actors or crew. However, two sources detailed Dick’s inappropriate behavior, which included groping people’s genitals, unwanted kissing/licking and sexual propositions of at least four members of the production. The Hollywood Reporter has not been able to reach any of the alleged victims. Andy Dick has been dropped from the independent feature film Raising Buchanan following accusations of sexual harassment and misconduct on set.
