In Poor Things Mark Ruffalo had a lot of doubts about his performance during the shoot.
He often half-joked that his friend Oscar Isaac, who was filming on a nearby sound stage, was going to be called in to replace him.

Isaac and Dafoe informed Ruffalo he was fired and, indeed, getting replaced by Isaac.
