In early June, John Boyega abruptly exited the Netflix production of Rebel Ridge for family reasons, according to a statement released by the streamer at the time. But other sources say that in fact, Boyega simply walked away from the production with filming underway which, according to one person with knowledge of the situation, the filmmakers only discovered when they looked for him at his hotel and found that he had checked out. According to sources, there seemed to be no one incident that prompted Boyega to leave in the midst of shooting. Several insiders, however, say the star had myriad issues ranging from the script to his accommodations. Top Netflix executives, including head of global films Scott Stuber and co-CEO Ted Sarandos, tried to persuade the star to return to the set without success. Dozens of crewmembers on the project were let go after Boyegas departure as the production disbanded. ... ...Industry veterans say they cannot remember an instance in which a star walked away from a movie when filming was underway. I know actors who wanted to back out of a movie, but nobody actually bails, says one top executive who is not involved with the movie. Not once they started shooting.... ...Through his representatives, Rebel Ridge director Jeremy Saulnier (Hold the Dark, Green Room) declined to comment. In the wake of Boyegas departure, Netflix was unable to find a quick replacement. The production has disbanded for now, with plans to resume with a new lead early next year... ...Last year Netflix made a deal with Boyega to develop films based on stories, cast, characters, crew, literary properties, mythology, screenplays and/or other elements in or around African countries, with a focus on West and East Africa. After the actor left Rebel Ridge, the streamer said in a statement: We look forward to continuing our partnership with John Boyegas UpperRoom Productions. Boyegas decision to exit the film would seem to preclude an insurance claim for money lost due to the shutdown of the production. Industry insiders say Netflix would not sue, though it would appear that an actor could face liability for leaving a project of his own volition while shooting was underway... --- https://youtu.be/t6k4OjpBCoI https://youtu.be/-jSU224GuJI https://youtu.be/1wwS8SB5060 https://tinyurl.com/5ha32ezv <cite>IvoryHecker posted [p:955440901] in New inform...
