John Leguizamo calls Steven Seagal a 'horrible human'

Despite their feud beginning over three decades ago, John Leguizamo has seemingly reawakened his feud with former co-star and action hero, Steven Seagal.

In a recent interview, theMoulin Rougestar even admitted that he’d based his washed-up character inThe Menuon Seagal.

However, it’s not the first time that Leguizamo has taken shots at the former macho man.

He explained the feud to theAV Club, with the 62-year-old saying that the role had gone to Seagal’s head, and alleged that he was even violent on set.

"He came in and was like, [low, breathy voice] 'I'm in command. What I say is law.' So I started, like, [snorts]. I mean, who the f**k talks like that?” he told the outlet, adding: “Who comes into rehearsal and says that s**t? "So I started laughing and he slammed me with an aikido elbow against a brick wall and knocked all the air out of me."

Things became so bad on set that Leguizamo showed up early when Seagal had death scenes, saying: "I wanted to see him die. It was like a fantasy."

In the 2022 flick, the veteran actor plays Georgie Diaz – an action star way past his prime and claimed he took inspiration from Seagal for the role.

When asked about this byEntertainment Weekly,theRomeo + Julietactor said that other A-Listers had also contributed to the character and said: "I've met lots of these stars like that, maybe before they were washed up."

Continuing, he told the publication: "I kind of based mine on Steven Seagal. I had a bad run-in with him. We did a movie together. It was Executive Decision. He's kind of a horrible human."

It seems the men will not be settling their feud any time soon.
