Paul Thomas Anderson and Bruce Reynolds and Ray Fisher and Joss Whedon refused offers to share the screen after a negative experience with each other. There are several reasons this can happen. Some directors pushed their lead actors too hard. Stanley Kubric forced Shelly Duval to repeat takes until her health suffered while filming the horror masterpiece The Shining. Otto Preminger also pushed Faye Dunaway to the brink while filming Chinatown.
Personality clashes can also be at fault. David Fincher was a fan of frequent retakes while Robert Downey Jr. preferred to work fast, and this caused them to struggle to work together. Creative differences also cause directors and actors to refuse to work together ever again. Tony Kaye wanted more control over American History X, and it sparked a feud with Edward Norton. Katherine Heigle fought with Judd Appotow over the characters in Knocked Up.
Certain actors or directors are known for frequent feud. David O Russel clashed with Lilly Tomlin and George Clooney. Faye Dunaway struggled to work with Roman Polanski and Otto Preminger and even took the matter to court. These feuds can give actors and directors reputations for being difficult as well. This was the case for Faye Dunaway, Katherine Heigl, and plenty of others. Difficult relationships on set don’t always last forever, though. A few feuding actors and directors managed to make up in the end. They include Kevin Smith and Bruce Willis and Bill Murray and Harold Ramis.
