Julia Margulies and Archie Panjabi reportedly did NOT get along on the set of The Good Wife. They did not share scenes for multiple seasons, with their characters estranged as well, until Panjabi exited the show, and the characters finally had a scene together. Except eagle-eyed fans realized the two had shot their goodbye scene separately, then been edited to look like they were together. This was confirmed by the show's creators...and it seems Margulies was potentially to blame. She implied Panjabi was busy filming her new show, which Panjabi denied, saying she had been in town and was willing to film. CBS / Via youtube.com Margulies denied rumors of a feud, calling it "totally gossip." She said, "I feel people just like to have gossip or make something into something that isn't there. There's no animosity on my part. It's a shame, because I wonder if it was two men [characters], when one finds out that he f-ed his best friend's wife, if it would get that same attention, you know what I mean?" In contrast, Panjabi said, "In terms of anything that happened on The Good Wife, I think it's only respectful to let it stay on The Good Wife." 2. Pauley Perrette and Mark Harmon reportedly also couldn't film scenes together during NCIS. Their feud started after Harmon brought his dog to the set, and it attacked a crew member, requiring them to get 16 stitches. He then continued to bring his dog to the set, which Perette was unsurprisingly not a fan of. They would then film on different dates, and it was alleged that they were edited together in the same fashion as Margulies and Panjabi.

Shia LaBeouf and Alec Baldwin had so much tension while rehearsing for the 2013 Broadway show Orphans that LaBeouf was actually replaced by Ben Foster. It turns out, this tension was intentional on LaBeouf's part. The noted method actor attempted to scare Baldwin during rehearsals, saying later, "My whole goal was to intimidate the f- out of Baldwin." This didn't stop after he was replaced. "I was trying to take my mind off the play, but I couldn't do it. So I would follow him from rehearsal to his home," he revealed. "I needed to have closure."

Charlize Theron revealed that her "feud" with Mad Max costar Tom Hardy got so bad, she asked for extra security on set. Camera operator Mark Goellnicht said this happened after Hardy arrived three hours late to set and Theron started "swearing her head off at him," leading to Hardy "charging" up to her and asking "What did you say to me?" in a "quite aggressive" manner. Theron had a producer with her for the rest of the shoot. Jasin Boland/Warner Bros./Courtesy Everett Collection 5. Tisha Campbell felt similarly threatened by her Martin co-star, Martin Lawrence, and actually filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual harassment, battery, and verbal abuse. She said that she was so afraid of Lawrence, who was rumored to carry a firearm, that she got a lock for her dressing room and began talks to install a panic button. She also claimed he once ransacked her dressing room and that at one point, she was hospitalized due to stress. She also alleged that he "tried to force his tongue into Campbell's mouth, simulated intercourse and forcibly touch her body, all against her will" during a bedroom scene. The suit settled out of court. Aaron Rapoport / 20th Century Fox Film Corp. / courtesy Everett Collection Campbell left the show, but she did return for the very end - however, she refused to film scenes with Lawrence. Lawrence continues to deny all this occurred, and they have since made up, with Campbell saying they "worked really hard to reconnect, to forgive." Arnold Turner / Getty Images for BET 6. Jeffrey Tambor is not exactly a great guy, IMO, so it's no surprise he butted heads with the late, great Jessica Walter on the set of Arrested Development. What is surprising, however, is that the rest of the cast didn't back Walters up after it became clear she'd been mistreated on set. In an interview with the New York Times, the interviewer brought up a recent admission from Tambor about having once blown up at Walters on set. "In like almost 60 years of working, I've never had anybody yell at me like that on a set," Walters revealed in response. While the cast defended Tambor's actions, Walters could be heard crying.
