Another actor accuses Bill Murray of acting like trash on set.
During an appearance on popular YouTube show ‘Good Mythical Morning’, hosts Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal asked former child actor Seth Green, “Who’s the rudest celebrity you’ve ever met, and say tell us what was so bad about them?”
Green, 48, said the grumpiest celebrity he had ever met was Bill Murray, 72. Murray, who was hosting “Saturday Night Live” at the time, allegedly threw Green in a trash can when he was just 9 years old.
“Bill Murray, as everyone knows, he’s great with kids,” the story began sarcastically.
Green said he was watching TV with Eddie Murphy, an “SNL” cast member at the time, when he climbed onto a couch to change the channel.
“He [Murray] saw me sitting on the arm of that chair and made a big fuss about me being in his place,” Green recalled.
“And I was like, ‘This is nonsense. I’m sitting on the arm of this couch. There are multiple lengths of this couch. Please, eff off.’ And he was like, ‘This is my chair.’ . . . And then my mother said, ‘You know, since he was the Bill Murray, maybe you should give him his place.
“And I say – I’ve never been so outraged, to be told – ‘Are you that dumb? You’re that rude to tell a 9-year-old to get out of your . . . What’s this power play?” Green continued.
The ‘Lost in Translation’ actor apparently didn’t appreciate Green standing up for himself.
“He grabbed me by the ankles . . . he hung me over a trash can, and he was like, ‘The trash goes into the trash can,'” Green recalled to a team of “GMM” to the audible voice.
“And I was screaming, and I swung my arms wildly, in full contact with his balls. He threw me in the trash, the trash is falling. I was horrified. I ran away, hid under the table in my dressing room and just cried.
Green said that after returning to his dressing room, he decided he no longer wanted to appear on the live sketch show, but Murphy and fellow “SNL” castmate Tim Kazurinsky encouraged him to perform.
“They come back and come to my room like, ‘Hey, everyone knows Bill’s announcement — k, you know? He’s hosting the show. He’s probably really nervous about it,’” Green said.
“‘You’re a pro, aren’t you?’ he remembered that they had told him. “‘The show has to go on. Be a pro. You’re a pro, aren’t you? And I was like, ‘I’m a pro. I’m a pro,'” Green said, mocking his young crying man.
Green said he hasn’t seen Murray since the incident, but he crossed paths with Murphy, who will always remember Green as the kid who climbed on the couch.
“I think it’s important to say that I love Bill Murray’s work and consider him one of the most important cultural icons we have,” Green said at the end of his story.
“But when I was 9, he was very rude.”
The Post has reached out to representatives for Murray for comment.
During a guest spot on SiriusXM’s “Faction Talk” on Thursday, former “SNL” actor Rob Schneider claimed that Murray “absolutely hated” the entire class of the ’90s late-night show, including including Adam Sandler and Chris Farley.
Earlier this year, Page Six reported that Murray’s “inappropriate conduct” on the set of Aziz Ansari’s “Being Mortal” led to production being shut down. More details about the lawsuit emerged on Tuesday, alleging the actor was “touching” with a film employee. Murray is accused of “kissing” and “riding” her.
And to top it all off, Murray’s “Quick Change” co-star Geena Davis also details her unsettling first encounters with him in her new memoir “Dying of Politeness.”
