How mad have you ever been at your boss? Now imagine you get paid millions of dollars for a project that lasts a few months, but your boss tells you what to do while speaking through a megaphone.
Also imagine you're legendary actor Ed Harris, who's appeared in over 70 movies, has won multiple Golden Globes, and has four Academy Award nominations to his name. Your boss is telling you to do something you REALLY don't want to do. What's your reaction?
Allegedly, it's punching your boss in the face.
And of course, when it comes to the movies, the boss on set is the director (at least in theory). Harris has worked with some of the most respected and beloved directors in the industry — but which one did he allegedly give a shiner?

The answer is: James Cameron. The Abyss was a notoriously grueling film to produce with underwater shots that put the cast and crew in very mortal danger. James Cameron himself almost drowned on set due to careless crew and faulty equipment. Ed Harris also nearly drowned and reportedly punched James Cameron in the face after surviving the terrifying incident. Ed Harris has said that the actors on set were just guinea pigs in James Cameron’s dangerous underwater experiment. Source
