In recent weeks, various publications have reported on actor Jack Nicholson's acting up on the set of Martin Scorsese's currently filming "The Departed" but today some more details have emerged as to the true extent of Nicholson's bizarre behaviour now that he's finished his work on the film.
Radar Online reports that according to studio sources, Nicholson went way beyond making occasional changes to the script and would actually rewrite each day's shoot. It got to the point where Scorsese was forced to shoot the actor's doctored script before shooting his own version just to keep Nicholson happy.
Other eccentric rules included a ban on all Celtics merchandise from the premises, a production source saying "If he caught anyone wearing a Celtics T-shirt, he'd literally shut down the set. It was no joke." Nicholson's agent responded to the claims with "I have no idea. I wasn't there."
