When asked about her filming of the Disney series “Santa Clause”, actress Casey Wilson doesn’t have a good word for colleague Tim Allen.
A peaceful Christmas atmosphere definitely sounds different: Actress Casey Wilson (43) complained in a podcast about the “damn rude behavior” of her series partner Tim Allen (70). As People magazine reports, Wilson described filming with Allen for the Disney+ series “Santa Clause” as one of the “worst” experiences she’s ever had on set. Tim Allen, “Listen Who’s Banging” star and protagonist of the “Santa Clause” film trilogy, has not yet commented on the allegations.
“Allen was a bastard”
The Disney+ series “Santa Clause” is actually intended as a cheerful sequel to the “Santa Clause” films, which have delighted Christmas audiences worldwide since 1994. According to the report, actress Casey Wilson complained about the shooting in a podcast from the “Bitch Sesh” series: “Tim Allen was such a bastard.”
Burglary scene ends in disaster
As evidence of Allen’s allegedly disrespectful behavior towards her, Wilson describes the process of filming with him. “He comes down the chimney, dressed as Santa Claus of course, and I’m woken up thinking there’s an intruder, basically like a break-in scene,” Wilson recalls. “So I throw things at him. He goes over to the producer who’s standing three feet away from me and says, and I hear him, ‘You have to tell her to stop stepping on my lines.’ The producer turns to me with a look of horror on his face, takes a step towards me and says, ‘Um, Tim would like you to stop trampling on his lines.'”
No conversation, no eye contact
Afterwards, everyone on set was “walking on eggshells,” “people just looked desperate.” And Wilson adds how “fucking rude” the Listen Who’s Banging star was as he left the set. “He never made eye contact, never said anything. It was so awkward.”
Neither Allen nor his management have yet commented on the allegations. Wilson only took part in the series because her children loved the “Santa Clause” films. However, she is likely to refrain from filming again with Tim Allen.
