Hollywood is buzzing after Matthew Lawrence spilled explosive behind-the-scenes tea about working with Gabrielle Union—and fans are stunned. In a jaw-dropping new interview, the Mrs. Doubtfire alum revealed Union once reported him to studio execs during a project, claiming he “refused to rehearse” with her. But what really went down?
Speaking candidly on a popular podcast this week, Lawrence claimed tensions flared while filming an unnamed project (rumored to be a 2000s-era TV show). “Gabrielle got angry because I didn’t want to rehearse a scene last minute,” he said. “She went straight to the studio. I was like, ‘Whoa, this is next-level.’” The actor admitted he was “blindsided” by the move but insisted there’s “no bad blood now.”
Fans are scrambling to guess which project sparked the feud. While neither has confirmed details, sleuths suspect it could be traced back to their time on ABC’s short-lived comedy Cuts (2005), where Union starred as a salon manager and Lawrence guest-starred as her ex. The show was canceled after one season, but clearly, the drama lingered.
Union, known for her no-nonsense rep in Hollywood, hasn’t publicly responded yet. But insiders claim the Bring It On icon has always prioritized professionalism on set. Meanwhile, Lawrence—who’s stayed low-profile since his Brotherly Love days—is suddenly back in headlines, with TikTok theories exploding over whether this “rehearsal refusal” impacted his career.
One thing’s clear: This bombshell proves even decade-old Hollywood grudges can resurface. Was Union justified in calling him out? Or did Lawrence dodge a bullet? Sound off in the comments—and stay tuned for updates!
