That’s why Bill Murray is said to have been given a leave of absence from the movie “Being Mortal”.

Bill Murray has been suspended from filming ‘Being Mortal’ after allegedly making female co-stars uncomfortable around him.

the essentials in brief

  • Bill Murray has been suspended from filming ‘Being Mortal’ for inappropriate behavior.
  • He crossed borders, for example pulling women’s hair.

“Ghostbusters” star Bill Murray (71) is said to have been suspended from filming the film “Being Mortal” because of “inappropriate behavior”. This news made the rounds last week.

Now the US side “Page Six” wants to have found out more about the motives from a set employee. According to the report, Murray made some female co-stars uncomfortable with being too close.

Accordingly, he had not touched anyone in “private places”. But he “put an arm around a woman, touched her hair, pulled her ponytail”. This was “always done in a comedic way”.

But: «It’s a fine line and everyone loves Bill. But even though his behavior wasn’t a criminal offence, some women felt uncomfortable and he crossed a line.”

Filming on “Being Mortal” by director, actor and comedian Aziz Ansari (39) started in March. According to insiders, half of the film, which deals with the topic of end-of-life care, is already in the can.

Not the first time

It’s not the first time Murray has been criticized for his behavior on a film set. Ben Dreyfuss (35), the son of Richard Dreyfuss (74), recently reported an incident via Twitter. He was just a kid then.

On the set of “What about Bob?”, a comedy by his father with Murray, the latter had a “nervous breakdown”. Supposedly because they didn’t want to give him an extra day off.

He then threw an ashtray at his co-star Richard Dreyfuss. “Disney then hired bodyguards to keep my father and Bill Murray away from each other between shoots.”

And already in the summer of 2021, the actress Lucy Liu (53) made a dispute with her colleague Murray public. Together they stood in front of the camera in 2000 for the movie “Charlie’s Angels”.

Liu reported that Murray allegedly insulted her. “Some of his language was inexcusable and unacceptable and I didn’t want to just sit there and accept it.” She told the Los Angeles Times podcast “Asian Enough”.
