The incident, confirmed by studio representatives, involved a physical altercation and significant property damage, raising questions about the future of the project.

Incident Details

The disturbance occurred at approximately 10:00 AM PST at the primary filming location in Los Angeles, California.

According to eyewitness accounts, a heated argument between Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong escalated rapidly.

Reports indicate that the dispute centered on creative differences regarding the film's direction and comedic content.

Sources close to the production describe the argument as unusually intense, fueled by months of simmering tension.

Eyewitness Accounts

One crew member, speaking on condition of anonymity, stated, "It was like a volcano erupted. One minute they were talking, the next minute things were flying."

Another witness reported seeing Tommy Chong allegedly throwing a prop chair, causing damage to a set wall.

Statements from other crew members corroborate that Cheech Marin responded with similar actions, leading to further damage.

Damage and Injuries

Preliminary assessments indicate substantial damage to several set pieces and equipment.

The exact cost of the damage is still being calculated, but initial estimates suggest it could exceed $100,000.

Minor injuries were reported among the crew as they attempted to separate the two comedians. No one required hospitalization.

Police Involvement

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) was called to the scene to restore order and investigate the incident.

An LAPD spokesperson confirmed that officers responded to a report of a disturbance and property damage at the film set.

As of this report, no arrests have been made, but the investigation is ongoing.

The LAPD is currently interviewing witnesses and reviewing security footage to determine the full extent of the incident.

Production Halt

Following the incident, the film's production company, "Starlight Productions," announced an immediate and indefinite halt to filming.

A company statement read, "Due to unforeseen circumstances, production on 'Shoot The Moon' has been temporarily suspended. The safety and well-being of our cast and crew are our top priorities."

Past Tensions

This is not the first time tensions have surfaced between Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong.

Though they are known for their comedic partnership, rumors of disagreements have circulated for years, especially after their initial split in the 1980s.

However, sources close to the production suggest this incident marks a significant escalation in their ongoing disputes.

Future of "Shoot The Moon"
