That’s what writer/director Shane Black told Business Insider in a new interview about Mel Gibson.
Black, director of the new film starring Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe “The Nice Guys” and who wrote first-class “Lethal Weapon” starring Gibson, thinks that he knows why the actor has had a lack of work.
“I think he’s essentially been blacklisted in the industry. I think people don’t want to work with him.”
It’ been ten years since Gibson’s Pacific Coast Highway DUI arrest followed by his infamous negative verbal rant against the Jews.
After working occasionally since 2006, Gibson is back at the Cannes Film Festival with new film Blood Father playing an ex-convict battling drug dealers who are trying to kill his estranged daughter played by young actress Erin Moriarty.
