Perhaps put Brittany Murphy on the long list of actors that are difficult to work with. She is reportedly causing a fuss, with some diva behavior on the set on her new movie. Brittany is said to be driving the crew crazy on the LA set of “Across the Hall” with increasingly outrageous behavior, according to sources.
“She’s extremely difficult. When she gets to the set, it comes to a grinding halt. She’s so hot and cold, you never know.”
One of her more bizzare demands is insisting on having diagonally cut peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with the crusts removed.
“She needs one every hour. It’s painstaking — her assistant takes about a half an hour making each one,” said one crew member. ”
Another issue is Murphy’s ever-present oddball husband and screenwriter, Simon Monjack, who storms around the set and intervenes so much that producers had to call a meeting to discuss how to deal with him. Murphy’s rep could not be reached for their denials yet.
