John Leguizamo Hints at 'Sociopath' Costar Without Naming Them: 'He Was God-Awful'

John Leguizamo isn’t naming names, but he’s making it pretty clear that one of his former co-stars left a bad taste in his mouth.

During his appearance on Kelly Ripa’s "Let's Talk Off Camera" podcast episode on Wednesday, August 26, the actor opened up about working with a costar he described as a "sociopath," hinting that the actor’s behavior on set was anything but easy to deal with.

The conversation began with Ripa asking, "You've worked with so many great actors. Who was the most generous actor you've ever worked with? And who was the biggest douche bag you have ever worked with?"

"Wow, OK, OK, that's a tall order. Let me see," the Encanto star replied.

Leguizamo continued about one of his favorite people to work with, "Well, you know, there's been a lot of great actors I've worked with, but I gotta say Matt Damon really impressed me in terms of his generosity of spirit. He doesn't complain, he doesn't whine, he doesn't b----."

After the confession, he and the Live With Kelly and Mark co-host began talking about their children briefly, before Ripa called back to her prior question, "See what he's doing here? He's dragging me down a path of positivity...So he doesn't have to name the biggest d-------."

"I'm not going to give his name because he's a working actor, but I did two movies with him, and he was god-awful. He was god-awful. He was impossible," The Odyssey actor revealed. "I think he might be even a sociopath. I mean, he did things that were... I've never seen anybody."

He said, "I was the third lead in this movie. He was like sixth or seventh, and he was only there for a few days, and he would do the craziest things to me. Like if I improvised the funny line, he would start coughing or yelling or talking while I would say my line so nobody could hear me."

"And then if I was to come into a scene and he had the cue, he wouldn't say the cue, so I wouldn't come in, and the director would go, 'John, what happened?' I go, 'I didn't hear my cue.' So we go action again, and he wouldn't say my cue," Leguizamo added. "So he goes, 'John, what happened? You didn't come in.' I go, 'I didn't hear my cue.'"

Leguizamo continued to recall the story, "So, like, next time I just came in, like because he wasn't going to say my cue. And then if he did improv, he would send me, we'd do, like, an improv, like improvising. He would send me off."

"Like, 'John, go, go, go check over there outside.' And I'll go, 'What?' But he was my boss in the scene," he said. "So I had to leave, and I would try to figure out a way to get back."

"Albert, figure it out," Ripa said to one of her producers, Albert Bianchini.

Leguizamo concluded, "It was relentless."
