Stanley Tucci spoke with ET ahead of the premiere of his new Prime Video series, Citadel, where he revealed which one of his iconic roles he would never play again.«I would not play George Harvey again in, which was horrible,» Tucci shared with ET's Ash Crossan. «It's a wonderful movie, but it was a tough experience. Simply because of the role.»In the film, based on 2002 book ofthe same name by Alice Sebold, Tucci plays sadistic serial killer known for raping and murdering at least seven girls. He eventually gets killed by falling off a steep hill after trying to lure another girl into his car.Tucci admittedly tried to get out of the role before understanding director Peter Jackson's motivation for casting him in the sinister part.«I asked Peter Jackson why he cast me in that role.
Ace Frehley says Paul Stanley didn’t apologise to him but called to say “fuck you”

KISS if Paul Stanley didn’t apologise for controversial comments. Now, the guitarist has confirmed that Stanley did call him, but only to say “fuck you”.The drama between the two started last month, after the KISS singer appeared on The Howard Stern Show and explained why the band didn’t perform when they were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2014.Among other reasons, Stanley said that the choice was partly because of the “demanding” nature of the Rock Hall, which wanted KISS to take to the stage with its original members, Frehley and Peter Criss.Explaining why he wouldn’t want to perform with the original guitarist and drummer, he said: “At this point, that would be demeaning to the band, and also would give some people confusion.
‘Cause if you saw people onstage who looked like KISS but sounded like that, maybe we should be called PISS.”From there, Frehley went on SiriusXM’s Trunk Nation with Eddie Trunk and threatened to spill some secret KISS “dirt” if Stanley didn’t apologise for the remark within one week.According to the guitarist, the “dirt” would come in the form of a 120-page manuscript, which contains “career-ending” details about both Stanley and bassist, Gene Simmons.“When it comes to negativity, and we’ve all done things that we regret over the years – it’s there,” he said. “My attorney has it in a safety deposit box […and] is instructed to release it.
So they can’t intimidate me.”Yesterday (April 5), marked exactly one week since Frehley demanded the apology and, in a new interview with Trunk Nation, the guitarist has confirmed that Stanely did call — not to apologise, but to say “fuck you” instead.“I was blindsided by the phone call,” he said. “I figured he was calling me maybe to apologise
