Rocky and Annabel start begging him – they’re like, Dennis, please tell us what you want, we’ll do anything. Meanwhile, there are 300 extras waiting for the next scene. Finally, they say: let’s go to lunch – but lunch turns out to be another two hours of Dennis screaming at the directors and producers about the state of movie making. The producers were looking at their watches, Rocky and Annabel were looking at each other, like, what the fuck can we do? The actors were like, oh my God, this is amazing, this is better than the movie. So I had this idea, let’s create our own. We had a little bit of dialogue, and it sucked. Rocky says ‘Dennis, what is it?’ And he yells: ‘You rewrote my lines! You call this writing? This is shit! It’s shit! And the fact you’d do it without asking me?’ He went on and on. “He’s telling them they’re completely unprofessional, that he’s never seen anything like this.
“He just starts screaming at Annabel and Rocky,” recalls Edson. The incendiary actor-director, who had unapologetically told everyone he had taken the role for money alone, stood amid the grandeur of his character’s penthouse suite and exploded. Something was about to go horribly wrong. So the directors ask, ‘What’s up Dennis?’” He’s mumbling to himself, he won’t look at anyone.
“Dennis comes in and he’s looking pissed off. “We’re in the bedroom of King Koopa’s skyscraper it’s a big set,” recalls actor and co-star Richard Edson.
