Mischa Barton Misses Out on "Homecoming"
Mischa Barton didn’t attend the premier of her new movie, “Homecoming,” and one of the producer’s isn’t too happy about her involuntarily move into a psych ward.
Producer Bingo Gubelmann said, “It’s frustrating. And it’s not ideal. It’s frustrating, but I’m not going to sit here and trash her because we’re young as a company and we’ve got to live and learn…I don’t want to be known as the producer that will turn on any actress at the drop of the hat.”
Gubelmann then rolled his eyes, adding, “it’s hard to remember” why he chose the actress for his indie flick, “because, you know, she’s not here right now.”
"Now, I haven't spoken to her yet because she's totally unreachable, so I don't know exactly what happened. I mean, I'm not as good at taking the high road as some people and yes, it would obviously be nice if she was here. Even just to hang out," he went on.
As far as abnormal behavior, Gubelmann said the former OC star didn’t act “at all unstable while shooting the flick in less than a month, 16 hours a day. She did it and she did an amazing job. It’s like, maybe she went method and maybe that’s what happened!”
Producer Austin Stark was very concerned about Barton after she had police escort her from her home to the hospital.
"I think we would have loved to have had her come out and support the movie, [but] you know, we wish her the best and obviously we hope she gets better. Obviously, it's a trying time for her. I mean, obviously we'd like her to be here but I don't think it hurts the movie."
Continuing, producer Benji Cohen shared, "She's going through a rough patch and she can't be here. And it's really too bad.”
Director Morgan J. Freeman also wished the best to Mischa. “I hope Mischa is doing OK. My thoughts and prayers are with her. Health first, movie second.”
