CBSN
Bill Murray addressed an incident that led production to be halted on his latest film, calling it a "difference of opinion." Murray did not get into the specifics of what happened, but confirmed that production on "Being Mortal" was paused as a result of a complaint directed at Murray from a woman working on the film.
"I did something I thought was funny and it wasn't taken that way," the 71-year-old actor said Saturday in an interview with CNBC. "The company, the movie studio, wanted to do the right thing, they wanted to check it all out, investigate it, and so they stopped the production."
Murray said that he and the woman are "talking" and "trying to make peace with each other."
