Actress Anna Faris has accused Ivan Reitman, whom she worked with on the set of My Super Ex-Girlfriend, of abusive behavior and bullying.
“One of my hardest film experiences was with Ivan Reitman,” the Mom alum, 45, alleged in a Wednesday, October 19, episode of her “Anna Faris Is Unqualified” podcast. “I mean, the idea of attempting to make a comedy under this, like, reign of terror, he was a yeller. He would bring down somebody every day … and my first day, it was me.”
Faris spoke with guest Lena Dunham, claiming that Reitman “slapped my ass” in public and frequently yelled at her when they worked together on My Super Ex-Girlfriend.
The House Bunny actress starred as Hannah Lewis in the romantic comedy, opposite Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson. The movie — which was released in July 2006 — follows Wilson’s Matt Saunders break up with Thurman’s Jenny Johnson over her clinginess. In retaliation, Jenny uses her newly discovered superpowers to get revenge on her former beau. Faris, for her part, played Matt’s coworker and new crush.
The Maryland native’s first day on set featured a fight scene between her and Thurman, now 52. However, production was allegedly delayed after “a big jar of wig glue” was spilled on Faris in the makeup trailer.
“I was terrified truly that Ivan thinks I’m some kind of diva for not coming out of my trailer,” Faris said of the late Ghostbusters director, who died in February at the age of 75, before detailing her filming experience. “I’m, like, in the middle of the street that’s all lit, it’s a night shoot, and Ivan is just taking me down. He was just like ‘Annie!’ — he always called me Annie — he’s like ‘you can’t play like that around here!’ — and I was like ‘don’t do it, don’t cry, no crying,’ and I
