Matthew Lillard responds to harsh criticism from Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino addresses Kanye West's claims he came up with the idea for Django Unchained
Actor Matthew Lillard expressed his hurt feelings after director Quentin Tarantino publicly criticized his acting on a podcast.
Tarantino, known for films like Kill Bill, made disparaging remarks about Lillard, Paul Dano, and Owen Wilson during an interview on the Bret Easton Ellis Podcast.
Tarantino specifically called Paul Dano “weak sauce” and “the weakest f***ing actor” while discussing Dano's performance in There Will Be Blood.
Lillard, known for Scream and Scooby-Doo, told fans at GalaxyCon that such criticism “f***ing sucks” and wouldn't be directed at top-tier actors like Tom Cruise.
Filmmaker Matt Reeves, who directed Dano in The Batman, defended Dano on X, stating he is an “incredible actor, and an incredible person.”
