Dennis Quaid Has A Christian Bale-Style Freak Out On Set

Dennis Quaid wasn’t in good company during an on-set meltdown that surfaced on YouTube earlier this week. The cell phone footage gained traction on Reddit, whose commenters aren’t necessarily falling for Quaid’s outlandish obscenities, claiming this must be the doing of late-night prankster Jimmy Kimmel.

Quaid’s unwavering rant featured colorful language ranging from “Dopey the D**k,” “Don’t f****g ‘Dennis’ me,” and, perhaps the most descriptive, “I’ve got these f*****g zombies over here that I have to look at like a bunch of p*****s staring at me,” before shouting, “Blow me!” and exiting. The amount of profanity might be a giveaway that Kimmel is, in fact, not behind this one, as the host typically aims for more family-friendly pranks like setting a twerking girl on fire. There’s no word from Quaid’s reps or Kimmel about the legitimacy of the meltdown according to Daily Mail, but it reminds us of that time Christian Bale angrily touted how “professional” he was on the set of Terminator Salvation. So real thing or publicity stunt to revive his otherwise stagnant career? If the latter is true it seems to be working, as Reddit commenters declare, “It just made me like him even more.”
