Bill murray makes rare comment about his personal life: ‘i know i’ve done some damage’

Bill Murray is reflecting on his past. The “Ghostbusters” actor, 74, admitted he’s “done some damage” over the years while speaking about the characters he plays at the 2025 Sundance Film

Festival in Park City, Utah, on Sunday. Murray, who revealed he doesn’t have an agent anymore, is at the festival promoting his upcoming indy flicks “The Friend” and “Riff Raff.” When asked

about playing characters who “lead lives of enormous charm” and being “aware of how poisonous their charm can be,” Murray didn’t hold back. “It’s always interesting when you’re playing a guy

who has done some damage. I know I’ve done some damage,” the star said, according to Entertainment Weekly. EXPLORE MORE Murray continued, “It’s unconscious damage, but it’s some sort of

penance to play them and to show that, you know, to show accepting responsibility for it.” While he didn’t elaborate on the specific “damage” he caused in his life, Murray mentioned his role

in the 2020 flick “On the Rocks” with director Sofia Coppola and his co-star Rashida Jones. “I was answering for a lot of things through that role,” he shared, according to Entertainment

Weekly. In “On the Rocks,” the “Groundhog Day” actor played a playboy father named Felix, who assists his daughter in figuring out if her husband is being unfaithful. Murray’s comments come

on the heels of his “Charlie’s Angels” co-star Lucy Liu doubling down on confronting him about his alleged behavior on set. Earlier this month, the actress, 56, said she had no regrets about

standing up for herself while filming. In 2021, Liu claimed she “stood up” to Murray after he allegedly began to “hurl insults” at her while using “inexcusable and unacceptable” language

during a scene. “I would have done that in any situation. I think when I sense something is not right, I am going to protect myself. It’s an innate thing to do if you feel there’s injustice,

and I always feel that way,” she told the Guardian in an interview published on Jan. 13. The actor has not addressed Liu’s allegations. She wasn’t the only former co-star who found him hard

to film with. Geena Davis, 69, who starred with Murray in 1990’s “Quick Change,” wrote about the alleged abuse she suffered from Murray in her 2022 memoir, “Dying of Politeness.” David

wrote it’s “rather universally known that [Murray] could be difficult to work with,” adding, “I think he knows very well the way he can behave.” Murray was also accused of alleged misconduct

in Aziz Ansari’s 2022 directorial project “Being Mortal.” He later addressed the claims against him, saying he “had a difference of opinion” with a woman who worked on the movie. Murray

alleged he “did something I thought was funny, and it wasn’t taken that way.” He also shared that the ordeal was “quite an education for me” at the time.
