Kate Beckinsale Speaks Out About Rough Times on Movie Sets, Points Finger at “Drunk” Co-star: Nick Nolte?

Kate Beckinsale is beautiful and talented. But she’s had an uneven career to say the least.

Now she’s speaking out, in light of Blake Lively’s lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. Beckinsale admits she knows neither of them, or what happened on the set of “It Ends with Us.” But her descriptions about being called a “c*nt” and bitch are unacceptable. They’re also not isolated to Beckinsale.

Kate recalls one incident in which her co-star, she says, showed up drunk every day. He also made everyone wait 6 hours before he arrived. The scenario was so bad, Kate says, that it made the director cry!

The film Kate seems to be alluding to is 2013’s “The Trials of Cate McCall.” She co-starred with Nick Nolte, a fine actor whose drinking problems are well known over the years. “Trials” was directed by Karen Moncrieff, who’s no push over but may have burst into tears on a shoot this unnecessarily grueling.

Watch the video below, and don’t comment on Beckinsale “not looking the same” as usual. It’s just makeup and hair. Her words are more important.
