Olivia Munn says Bryan Singer walked off the set of XMenApocalypse in Montreal to fly to Los Angeles for approximately 10 days to deal with a “thyroid issue,” leaving the production to scramble without a director
Months before production started on that film, two lawsuits alleged that Singer had sexually abused underage boys. The accusations, which were later dismissed, painted the portrait of Singer as a hedonistic figure in the entertainment industry with a questionable work ethic.
Even after that, Singer was hired by the same studio that released “X-Men,” 20th Century Fox, to direct the Queen biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody.” In late 2017, Singer was fired in the middle of the production of “Bohemian Rhapsody” for allegedly not coming to work and clashing with actor Rami Malek. Other stories followed about how Singer had also been missing on the set of “X-Men: Apocalypse” with reporting from anonymous sources.
Instead of going to a doctor in Montreal, which is a very high-level, working city, he said he had to go to L.A. And he was gone for about 10 days is my recollection. And he said, “Continue. Keep filming.” We’d be on set, I remember there’s a big scene that we’d have, and we’d come back from lunch and then one of Bryan’s assistants would come up and show us a cell phone with a text message on it.
Come to find out it is really strange and it wasn’t OK. But this person is allowed to continue to go on. Fox still gives him “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and then we all know what happened.
