Gibson fires back, Johnny Depp the rock star
Hollywood screenwriter Joe Eszterhas is accusing Mel Gibson, his recent collaborator on a movie about Jewish revolt, of "hating Jews" and using him to deflect his anti-Semitic reputation. In a nine-page letter to Gibson obtained by Hollywood news website, TheWrap, the screenwriter wrote that Gibson never intended to make the movie about Jewish heroism, called "The Maccabees." Mel Gibson fired back Thursday (April 12), calling the writer's comments "utter fabrications" and saying he was angry over a rejected film script. Warner Bros. has put the controversial project on hold, and rejected Eszterhas's script as lacking in "a sense of triumph."
