David Cross says he will “never work with” the Alvin and the Chipmunks crew again, claiming they were doing “shi*ty things on purpose” and treated him terribly during production.

David Cross says he will “never work with” the Alvin and the Chipmunks crew again, claiming they were doing “shi*ty things on purpose” and treated him terribly during production.

The actor, who played Ian Hawke in the Alvin and the Chipmunks films, spoke openly about his experience, saying the environment on set felt intentionally difficult and unprofessional at times.

His comments have sparked attention online, especially as the franchise was a major commercial success, but his perspective highlights a very different behind-the-scenes experience than what audiences saw on screen.
