Look it up, he’s one of those guys who uses celebrity to treat service staff like shit, was a creepy asshole behind the scenes on GOT to the female costars, drunk and yelling on the set of aqua man, there’s also a new story out about him being an asshole to the crew of Minecraft
Translation: It's utter nonsense and I cannot find any reputable source to back up my claims.
Bro, you're making the accusation here. I'm not going to go around and do your legwork for you. I'm just going to assume what you said is bullshit. ESPECIALLY when co-stars from Game of Thrones have said the dead opposite. Emilia Clarke has come out and said he was a joy to work with. The closest accusation I can think of was some extremely badly judged joke he made in 2011 that he openly apologiezd for.
Also, I heard about the Minecraft thing. It was from a single person who said they saw it happening to someone else. Their accusation was that they're yelling. I am not going to be jumping on a bandwagon of "Fuck this dude" unless I know the reason as to what was going on. Like two actors got given a ton of shit for yelling at people in the past and I am perfectly fine with those.
Why? Because sometimes yelling at someone isn't abuse, it's telling them off for fucking everything up for hundreds of other people. Christian Bale losing his mind at a dude who openly walked through a filming zone when they had very specific timing to do it, were under pressure like a motherfucker, it requires resets and that dude had been told off before about his actions? I'm fine with that. Tom Cruise yelling at someone for endangering the entire filming crew of a movie during COVID? I'm fine with that. I have no idea if I'm fine with Momoa doing it or not because I don't have the context and neither do you.
Put up or shut up. I am so tired of this gossipy horseshit of "Oh he's a terrible person because of <something I'm half remembering from years ago>" and considering all your other comments in here, that's all your accusations are. Half remembered.
I couldn’t care less about this actor. Don’t even know who he is.
That said, yelling at people you work with is never appropriate man. That’s verbal abuse and “they screwed up” is not an excuse. As the power differential grows between two coworkers, it becomes even less acceptable.
What about punching people you work with? When is that acceptable?
