Deuce Bigalow vs. Mel Gibson |
||||
| BorisVM | Mel Gibson has been rubbed out of Deuce Bigalow's black book. "I, Rob Schneider, a 1/2 Jew, pledge from this day forward to never work with Mel Gibson, actor-director-producer and anti-Semite," vowed an open letter baring the comic actor's signature. The declaration was published as a full-page ad in Variety on Thursday, an otherwise quiet day on the Gibson nuclear-meltdown watch. The unsaid joke of the letter is that, up until now, Schneider's and Gibson's paths have never been in danger of crossing. Schneider, the Saturday Night Live alum, makes comedies like Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo and Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo. Gibson, the two-time Oscar winner, makes epics like Braveheart and The Passion of the Christ. Still, Schneider seems to want to head off any chance collaboration with the blockbuster star who reputedly railed against "f--king Jews" during a drunken-driving arrest last week. "Even if Mr. Gibson offered me the lead role in Passion of the Christ 2, I, like Bernie Brillstein, would have to say 'NO!'," the Schneider letter declares. Brillstein is the longtime Hollywood manager who told the Los Angeles Times that, if asked, he would not represent Gibson. "I don't like bigots," Brillstein said. The Schneider letter evokes Brillstein's name several times, such as when it states that even if Gibson "had a juicy voiceover role in his new flick Apocalypto and I spoke ancient Mayan, I, like Bernie Brillstein would still have to say 'NO!'" Schneider goes on to rule out potential future work with Gibson's 87-year-old father, Hutton Gibson, who is described as "the Mad Max of Holocaust deniers." He vows to avoid Taverna Tony, one of two Malibu restaurants, along with Moonshadows, where Gibson reportedly held court in the hours before his DUI arrest. And, in a plug for his own upcoming movie, Big Stan, Schneider declares he wouldn't cast the younger Gibson as the film's "Nazi gang leader"--even if he "had a time machine and could go back in time and recast the lead." Schneider's publicist did not respond to an email Thursday seeking further comment and clarification of the Variety ad. That Schneider was in any kind of letter-writing form seems to indicate the 42-year-old has recovered sufficiently after collapsing last month on the set of Big Stan. Schneider, who is making his directing debut with the prison comedy, was waylaid by food poisoning and heat exhaustion, his rep said at the time. Schneider previously practiced his penmanship with an open letter/Variety ad that denounced a newspaper columnist who'd been dismissive of the Deuce Bigalow series. Gibson, 50, was charged Wednesday with two misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence. In the pair of apologies issued since the July 28 arrest, the star has admitted to driving after drinking, and suffering an alcoholic relapse. He has since begun "an ongoing program of recovery." Gibson has also begun an ongoing program of recovery, of sorts, with regards to "everyone in the Jewish community." The actor/director has asked for "one-on-one" meetings with Jewish leaders to "discern the appropriate path for healing." The Anti-Defamation League has accepted Gibson's latest words of contrition. And even Deuce Bigalow has left the door open for a Schneider-Gibson billing. In the Schneider Variety ad--not to be confused for the South Park Variety ad that seemed to be a Gibson jab, but actually wasn't--the comic writes that if his "financial backers, some of whom share Mr. Gibson's hankering for a good bottle of tequila," think he should work with the Lethal Weapon A-lister, then he might have to heed their advice. "Because after all, I don't get to call all the shots." |
