Rourke showed some humility when making The Wrestler, but then quickly resorted to his old bad ways afterwards. Telling a director to "go play with himself" when he wasn't offered a large enough paycheck for a project may not be the best way for making friends in any business.
Norton reportedly fancied himself a screenwriter, wanting to rewrite the scripts for some projects he was involved in, most notably The Incredible Hulk.
I don't know what happened to Caruso, but I seem to recall that after CSI he fancied himself a huge star behaving rather arrogantly in the process.
It's weird how much leeway certain actors get when it comes to antisocial behaviour and box-office disappointments, while for others one huge flop or one single case of "creative differences" with a producer can be enough to ruin their career.
I mean Eddie Murphy had been making flop after flop for years, and yet he still got hefty paycheques thrown after him. And this despite him reputedly being an arrogant moron.
They say John Travolta is a real nice guy, which might explain why he still has a career. I mean when was the last time he had a hit?
I wonder why Bruce Willis hasn't been blackballed. He seems to be quite a jerk and has had his fair share of flops over the years too.
Josh Hartnett ran into trouble when shooting Mozart and the Whale. In a dispute between the director and producer he sided with the director, which seems to have been enough to ruin his career. And this was just some small indie movie.
I'm not sure what happened to Sarah Michelle Gellar. She's retired now, but there was a time when she was trying to revive her career with rather lacklustre results.
