Though some of these actors and directors' collaborations resulted in their finest works, they infamously had hostile relationships on set that sometimes led to severed ties between them.

AceShowbiz - Katherine Heigl has a reputation of being hard to work with, but it was also her who started to create a tension between her and Judd Apatow after she starred in his film "Knocked Up". It began as she trash talked the movie, saying that she hated how her character was portrayed as a "b***h." She told Vanity Fair, "Why is this how you're portraying women? Ninety-eight percent of the time it was an amazing experience, but it was hard for me to love the movie."
Apatow and Heigl's co-star Seth Rogen disputed her claims, calling her "bat-s*** crazy," after which she retracted her earlier comments about the movie. "I liked the movie a lot. I just didn't like me," she told Howard Stern, but admitted that she never apologized to the director. Keeping his cool, Apatow later said in 2017 that the "ER" alum "doesn't need to apologize for anything." He added, "She didn't like it but she was so awesome in it, so it was confusing. So it was just an odd thing."
