Alec Baldwin got Shia LaBeouf fired from Orphans.
"There was friction between us from the beginning," Alec said. "One day he attacked me in front of everyone. He said, 'You’re slowing me down, and you don’t know your lines. And if you don’t say your lines, I’m just going to keep saying my lines.' We all sat, frozen.
"So I took the stage manager…to another room, and I said one of us is going to go. I said, 'I’ll tell you what, I’ll go.' I said don’t fire the kid, I’ll quit. They said no, no, no, no, and they fired him."

"Ryan came to me, and there’s 150 people standing in this big scene, and he says, 'Nick come here.' And he’s doing a scene with Rachel and he says, 'Would you take her out of here and bring in another actress to read off camera with me?' I said, 'What?' He says, 'I can’t. I can’t do it with her. I’m just not getting anything from this.'"
