I think we can all agree that callous or physically abusive behavior on a movie set is a bad thing, no matter who’s dishing it out or taking it. Simply acting like a dick….that doesn’t fly either.

Earlier today Bella Thorne accused Mickey Rourke of giving her a hard time during the making of Girl. If her accusations are valid Rourke owes her an apology and a general pledge not to behave this way again with anyone.

Thorne’s apparent goal in making a stink about this is presumably to obtain said apology…right? She hasn’t filed a lawsuit so the idea is apparently to make him sweat or pay on some social or professional level.

Why didn’t she forcefully confront him after the film wrapped in late 2019 or or during the pre-release promotion in the late summer or 2020? Why did she wait almost five years to lower the boom?
