Adam Sandler has been called an "a**hole" by a Sony executive.
The 'Anger Management' star was criticised by embattled Sony Pictures executive Amy Pascal after he demanded $200 million for a new film and a raise for a production buddy, leaked emails show.
Studio executives at Sony were angered by the 48-year-old actor's behaviour during the making of the animated film 'Hotel Transylvania 2'.
In a leaked email written by Pascal to Hannah Minghella, of Columbia Pictures, she said: "Adam is an asshile and this is more his fault than anyone's but what we did was not communicate with each other and make assumptions (sic).
"Maybe I didn't pay attention when you were telling me what I was walking into but it also comes from .â.â. no one taking responsibility and I mean myself as it is my responsibility to let you guys know what I want to breath life into."
In another email written by Doug Belgrad, president of Sony's motion-picture group, he claims Adam is angry that he no longer enjoys the success he achieved earlier in his career.
Doug wrote: "You said yourself that Adam was gonna be angry and .â.â. you couldn't fix what was really bothering him, that he isn't the guy he once was and nobody can make that better for him."
