In an interview, Freddie Prinze Jr. recalled conflicts with the director of I Know What You Did Last Summer

Movie actor like Scooby Doo (2002) and She is great (1999), Freddie Prinze Jr. revealed how he almost gave up acting after a “miserable” experience filming I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), iconic horror film in which he played Ray Bronson.

During an interview with TooFab, Prinze jr. reminisced how Jim Gillespie, director of the horror feature, gave “psychotic notes” and would “choose” him for negative treatment. In addition, the actor claimed how the filmmaker wanted Jeremy Sistoin The Beverly Hills Girls (1995), in the role of Ray Bronson.

“There was no passive aggression, which I hate. He was very direct [com] the fact that ‘I don’t want you in this movie,'” he said. “So when this is your first job and you hear those words, it just destroys you, man.”

In addition to the aforementioned “psychotic notes,” Freddie Prinze Jr. also claimed that Jim Gillespie “he made a point of criticizing me every time,” excluding him when the director called other actors to read the notes before filming.

It was very difficult to wake up in the morning – or in the afternoon, because we shot a lot of nights – and go to work with the right attitude.

Then, Prinze jr. considered giving up hollywood after experiencing a “near-death experience” while filming on a motorboat for the plot finale: “I almost got on a flight and went home. I was done. I had enough. They broke a ton of union stuff that they shouldn’t, like union rules. All sorts of things.”

“And, I just felt if I’m not welcome here, so be it. There are other things I can do,” continued the actor. “I left the Le Cordon Bleu to make this movie. I’m going to be a chef, that’s what my mom wanted me to be anyway. I wanted to fight that guy two or three different times.”

Two actors from I Know What You Did Last Summer who helped Freddie Prinze Jr. in this difficult time were Ryan Philippe (Barry William Cox) It is Sarah Michelle Gellar (Helen Shivers). It is worth remembering how gellar is the wife of Prinze jr. until today – and also acted with him in Scooby Doo.

I’m not upset because that movie launched my entire career. I wouldn’t have anything I have without this film. I wouldn’t have my wife, I wouldn’t have all the other movies I’ve done.
