Bill Murray once again accused of violence, this time by actor Seth Green

A few days after the revelations of the actress Geena Davis, another character of the cinema takes the floor to tell the actions of the comedian Bill Murray. Yes, Bill Murray, whom we know for his good-natured air of him in the Wes Anderson films, but even now for his hateful behavior towards those who cross his path.

A whimsical star who throws a nine-year-old boy into a garbage can

Seth Green, actor best known for his role as Oz in Buffy the Vampire Slayerwas a guest of Mythical good morningcomedy show broadcast on YouTube, in which the host has to reveal funny or somewhat shameful anecdotes. When questioning “Who is the rudest celebrity? “the actor reacted instantly, visibly ready to serve tea.

The scene takes place during the filming of the Live Saturday night. Seth Green was then nine years old and took part in a Christmas sketch. It was Bill Murray who hosted the show that day:

“He saw me sitting on the arm of the sofa and got a great deal out of it. And I was there “it’s stupid. I am sitting on the arm of the sofa. There is plenty of room to sit. Kindly show yourself “. And it was in “this is my place” mode.

Visibly annoyed to see His Majesty Bill Murray insisting that a child walk away from his seat, Seth Green from his nine years was not impressed.

“He grabbed me by the ankles, held my head upside down, hung me over the garbage can, like ‘garbage in the dumpster.’ And I screamed, waved my arms, gestured like crazy, kicked right in the balls. He left me in the garbage, the garbage fell. I was horrified, I ran away and hid under the table in my dressing room crying. “

Later, it was Eddie Murphy and Tim Kazurinsky who found and comforted him, says Seth Green: “Hey, everyone knows Bill is an asshole. But he’s the one who shows up, he’s probably a little nervous. Will you be professional, huh? The show must go on. “

When Geena Davis recounts her first meeting with Bill Murray

Seth Green claims he never crossed paths with Bill Murray again. This testimony emerges as rightly told by Geena Davis in her memoirs Dying of kindness how the comedian would have been particularly insistent on giving him a massage when they met on the set of Robbery in New York in 1990:

“I said no several times, but it didn’t stop. I should have yelled at him and made a scene to make him stop trying to force me to do it; the other men present did nothing to stop him. I realized with deep sadness that I still did not have the ability to resist this onslaught – or simply to leave the room. “

She also says that Bill Murray would have yelled at her during this shoot and that he seems very aware of the violent way he can behave.

Last spring, the actor was also targeted a sexual assault report brought against him by a woman who worked on the set of Being mortal directed by Aziz Ansari, now suspended film. A $ 100,000 financial settlement was found between the two sides and the actor admitted the facts, claiming he wanted to play a joke.
