Add Page Six on Google Scott Eastwood's "piece of s–t" co-star dropped out of their movie mid-production.
The actor called out the celeb, whom he did not name, on a recent episode of the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast .
"I just worked with somebody and, without saying any names, people get too famous for too long and think the world owes them something," the 40-year-old told listeners recently.
"They decided after we’d already spent a bunch of money that they just didn’t want to work with this other person and didn’t want to do the job,” he recalled during the June 29 episode. “I was like, ‘OK, then you need to pay that money back to the person who invested in you.’ They were like, ‘I’m not gonna do that.’”
Instead, the individual "just left" the project, which Scott did not specify.
Clint Eastwood's son added, "It was their directorial, their story, their thing. And it was just like, bro, you that you took money from somebody.”
He called the situation "shocking" and "unbelievable," saying, "It’s black and white. Do the right thing. Don’t be a piece of s‑‑t. You can’t do that.
"I’ve seen some behavior in this business that is shocking," Scott continued. "That would not go in other industries, but for some reason because they’re stars, right?"
He called the industry "really ugly" behind the scenes.
However, the "Lucky Strike" star gushed, "I love telling stories and when we’re doing a creative endeavor and you move people, whether you’ll make them laugh, make them cry, whatever."
Scott's rep did not immediately respond to Page Six's request for comment.
Elsewhere in the episode, Scott described his dad, 96, as "a put-your-boots-on, go-to-work man" who left his job "at the door."
He similarly told Treats! magazine in March 2015 that Clint's career advice had been, "Whatever you do, do it well. We humble, work hard and be a man."
Clint, who has seven other children , didn't care whether Scott was "a plumber … or actor," Scott clarified.
"I didn’t get in this to be famous," the "Snowden" star said. "I grew up loving my father’s work, loving movies and telling stories, wanting to be a part of that.”
