7. Bruce Willis and Kevin Smith
Kevin Smith has never been one to hold his tongue about blasting Hollywood stars, even though most filmmakers tend to not take their feuds to the stage. But after working with his idol and New Jersey native Bruce Willis on Live Free or Die Hard, Willis suggested that they should work together again. Smith signed on to direct the Willis/Tracy Morgan buddy cop film, Cop Out.

Smith talked to Marc Maron on his podcast, and then wrote a whole chapter in his memoir, Tough Sh*t, about his time working with Willis on Cop Out. Smith wrote that Willis was a “deeply unhappy lazy-ass,” who couldn’t be bothered to commit to scenes or follow direction. He continues, “He turns out to be the unhappiest, most bitter, and meanest emo-b**ch I’ve ever met at any job I’ve held down. And mind you, I’ve worked at Domino’s Pizza.”
Willis didn’t respond to any of Smith’s jibes, but he did at one point allegedly call Smith a whiner, while Smith called the experience “soul crushing.”
