Critical Decision

According to John Leguizamo in his autobiography, Steven Seagal physically attacked him during filming, in an effort to scare the cast and crew. Leguizamo claimed that during rehearsals, Seagal had come in and told the cast that "I'm in command. What I say is law." Thinking it was a joke, Leguizamo started to laugh, but Seagal proved him wrong by slamming him against a brick wall with an aikido elbow, knocking all the air out of him and dropping him to the ground. In 2022, Leguizamo confirmed that he "did not have a good time with Steven Seagal. No one has." According to the Observer, Seagal threatened to attack Leguizamo if they ever crossed paths on the Red Carpet after learning Leguizamo had mocked Seagal on his comedy show, "Ghetto Klown." However, Leguizamo wasn't threatened and said of Seagal, "I don't think he's invited to a lot of red carpets."
