It’s no surprise that Chevy Chase had conflicts with his co-stars – it’s a well-known pattern. Steve Martin, his former co-star from Amigo, also didn’t participate in a recent documentary about Chase. However, the tension Chase had with the cast of Community has become a central part of his story, especially since he left the show in 2012 after reportedly walking off the set multiple times. Reports indicate clashes arose from racially insensitive jokes and comments directed at and about Donald Glover. Ultimately, his character, Pierce Hawthorne, was written off the show in season 5. When asked about his reputation for difficult behavior in 2022, Chase responded, “I don’t care. I am who I am, and I like who I am.” He added that he’s thought about it a lot and simply doesn’t regret his actions.
