Overview

  • He recalled that the unnamed actor "literally physically shoved me out of the shot with his elbows" in a scenario first mentioned in a 2011 Telegraph profile.
  • He said the co-star used a "completely different performance off-camera than on" to unsettle him, describing the tactics as unlike anything he had seen before.
  • Isaacs has collaborated with dozens of high-profile actors in films such as Armageddon, The Patriot and the Harry Potter series, making the bully’s identity hard to pin down.
  • The actor emphasised that "acting is all about secrets" and argued that revealing colleagues’ misdeeds offers "no value, other than masochism and sabotage."
  • Alongside the bullying claims, Isaacs criticised on-set unprofessionalism ranging from selfishness and cruelty to absenteeism and incomplete scenes.
