Sean Young talks about how 'horrible' it was to work with Charlie Sheen


Sean Young who appeared in the movie 'Wall Street' with Charlie Sheen has revealed how complicated it was to work with the actor, in addition to talking about the drug abuse he did on the set of filming.


Actress Sean Young became one of the great actresses of the 80s thanks to several projects that elevated her career. Two of them are remembered today as cult films, this is the case of Ridley Scott's 'Blade Runner' (1982) and David Lynch's 'Dune' (1984).


But, despite the great acting talent Ella Young had, she was dubbed a difficult actress to work with and in the 1990s her popularity and access to new roles declined. Although, despite this, the British has continued to work all this time.

Now, the actress has granted an interview to 'Daily Beast' where she has spoken without mincing words about some of her toughest experiences in Hollywood. This is how she remembers a love scene between her and Harrison Ford in 'Blade Runner' that was not romantic at all, something that she understands as Ridley Scott's revenge for having given her pumpkins.


"Honestly, Ridley [Scott] wanted me to go out with him. He tried so hard at the beginning of the show to get me to go out with him, and I never would. I was like, nah. And then he started going out with the actress who played Zhora , Joanna Cassidy, and I was relieved. And then we do this scene, and I think it was Ridley. I think Ridley was like, fuck you. I was thinking, 'Why does it have to be like this? What was the point of it's?' and I think it was Ridley's not-too-subtle message that he was getting back at me."


Another of the great productions in which she worked in the 80s was the film 'Wall Street' starring Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen and directed by Oliver Stone. Tape of which he does not have a good memory.


"Oh God, what a bastard [Oliver Stone] was. Michael Douglas was wonderful, but Oliver and Charlie [Sheen] were horrible. And Charlie was doing a lot of coke in that movie, and that's what cocaine does to you." says openly about how difficult it was to work with the actor and director of the film.


In addition, Young remembers a very unpleasant moment that he lived with Charlie Sheen who put a note on his back that said "cunt", which could be translated as "asshole": "Michael ripped it out without me knowing what he was saying. I said: 'What was that?' and he said, 'Forget it.' Then the art dealer, the guy who brought in all the paintings that were on the wall, was there guarding the paintings and he told me what Charlie had done. I talked to Charlie the next day and told him I said, 'Your dad was a pro. Writing "asshole" on a piece of duct tape and sticking it to my back? It's not pro. It's just stupid. What are you doing?'"


Sean also recalls the moment when the film's director decided to do without her in a very inelegant way: "Oliver put Daryl [Hannah] in this white dress that she ends up wearing in the big party scene, and Daryl let her hang out in his trailer. Daryl didn't want to wear the dress because it's backless, and I look at Oliver and say, 'Oliver, why would you want her to wear a dress that she's not comfortable in?' He said, 'Could you excuse us for a minute?' and I got up and left the trailer", he begins thus telling the anecdote.


To add later: "We're rehearsing and he takes my only line in the scene: Bud is talking about racehorses and I turn to him and say, 'These are show jumping horses, honey, these aren't racehorses.' , like a big snob. She gives my line to Daryl. And I go up to Oliver and say, 'I don't understand? I don't have any lines now. What's the point of me being in this scene?' And he's like, 'You're right. You're fired.' I went to the trailer, got my stuff, and then they told me to get in a car. And the driver, who I thought was going to take me back to Manhattan, drops me off at the bus station".


Although, not all the colleagues with whom he has worked define them in such a "horrible" way. Sean was with Jim Carrey in 'Ace Ventura' (1994) and has a great memory of him: "Morgan Creek wanted another and Jim Carrey wanted me. And he fought for me. And I got the role. He is the only protagonist that she ever did that for me. Jim walked in and was like, 'No, no, no. Whatever you're listening to is bullshit. She's great."
