If one of the co-stars is to be believed, there was very little “ho-ho-ho-ho-ing” on the set of Disney+’s “The Santas.”
Casey Wilson, who appeared alongside Tim Allen in the show’s pilot episode, criticized him in a recent talk on her podcast. She claims working with him was “the truly worst experience I’ve ever had with a co-star.”
“Tim Allen was so off–h,” she said. The “Saturday Night Live” star claimed she didn’t immediately put Allen on the lewd list and said she “buried” that information for more than a year since the show’s release. Why? A friend was a producer and her children “loved the films.”
The series was a sequel to Allen’s classic Santa Clause films. Wilson played “Adult Sarah” in the series, the adult version of the girl who gave soy milk to Santa Claus in the first film.
“So I’m in a scene. It’s just me and Tim Allen and I’m supposed to throw things at him,” Wilson said. “I think he’s a burglar. So he comes down the chimney, obviously as Santa Claus, and I’m woken up thinking there’s an intruder, basically like a house break-in scene. So I throw things at him.
“[He] goes to the producer who is standing a meter away from me and I hear him say, “You have to tell her to stop stepping on my lines.” The producer turns to me with horror on his face, has to one Walking towards me and saying, “Um, Tim would like you to stop stepping on his lines.”
That was just the beginning.
Wilson also claimed that Allen was “so damn rude” when he finished filming his scenes and that “everyone around him was walking on eggshells” and “just looked desperate.”
“It’s the end and Tim Allen says, ‘Go!’ “Take his Santa cape, pick it up, drop it on the ground and walk out,” Wilson said. “And they rush to represent him. amiable man, towards whom one could act much nicer. People rush to pick up his velvet Santa coat.”
She continued: “He’s from – – h. And that’s the best part… I won’t say who said that. This was someone I don’t know, maybe from the crew. [He or she] blows past me and just says, ‘You see him on a good day.'”
Allen has not responded to the allegations.
