Marlon Brando Ghosted This Movie and They Had to Shoot Around Him

Marlon Brando showed up to the set of "The Island of Dr. Moreau" refusing to learn a single line—instead demanding his dialogue be fed through an earpiece while grieving his daughter's tragic death. Meanwhile, the original director got fired mid-shoot, a hurricane destroyed the set, and Val Kilmer was served divorce papers on camera, yet somehow they actually completed this cursed production. It became a box office bomb, but this absolute disaster of a film somehow made it to theaters.
