The film “Being Mortal”, by Aziz Ansari, was suspended on April 22 because of this complaint. The actor explained that he encountered a “difference of opinion” with a woman on the set. Bill Murray has remained rather discreet in mid-April since the complaint was filed against him for his behavior deemed “inappropriate” on the set of the film Being Deadly. This legal procedure had notably led to the suspension of the production of the feature film, directed by Aziz Ansari. But this Saturday, the actor broke his silence. During an interview on the CNBC television channel, he explains, without going into the details of the incident, to have encountered a “difference of opinion” with a woman on the set. “I did something that I thought it was funny and it wasn’t taken that way,” he told CNBC. “The film studio wanted to do well, so they wanted to check all that, investigate and therefore suspended production.” “It was a hell of a lesson for me” He then specifies during the interview, having been in contact with the young woman he offended and hopes that, despite this incident, the two of them can continue to work together to continue filming the film.”We are both professionals. We love each other’s work – we appreciate each other’s work. each other, I think. If we can’t get along and trust each other, there’s no point in going any further by working together or making a movie.” .He continues: “It was a hell of a lesson for me. I haven’t done much but think about her for a week or two.”Bill Murray also indicates that he has not yet met with the leaders of the Searchlight Pictures studio – in charge of the film – about the complaint. “Not with the studio, just with her and the people who help her. Everything in its time”, assures the actor. An uncertain future for the filmOn April 20, Searchlight Pictures studios sent a letter to the actors and to the Being Mortal team, to inform them that filming had been put on hold due to an unspecified complaint. Although sources at the time said the production shutdown was unrelated to Covid-19, the cause of the shutdown remained ambiguous. The exact nature of the charges against Bill Murray has still not been specified elsewhere. Being Mortal marks the debut of Aziz Ansari as a director. The latter also plays in the film alongside Seth Rogen and Bill Murray. This feature film is inspired by Atul Gawande’s book, Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End. Filming for this film adaptation began on March 28. According to The Hollywood Reporter, filming was half finished before being interrupted. The release of the film was, meanwhile, scheduled for 2023 but it is not known if the suspension will affect this broadcast date and if Bill Murray will keep his role.
