“People were afraid that I was going to point at them exiting their limo or their SUV and go, ‘How can you drive a car?’” the actor recalled to Page Six.

He even installed solar panels on his home.Begley Jr. says that being photographed cycling to the Oscars one year was catnip for paparazzi – and just enforced the image of him being a militant greenie, to the detriment of his career.

The actor also remembers being pulled aside on the set of 1994’s “The Pagemaster” and thought he was about to be fired. Instead, a producer was worried that Begley Jr. would make a fuss because he was set to film a scene driving a car.Providing another example, Begley Jr. recalled being on a separate film set where the crew was in a tizzy because recycling bins hadn’t been brought out yet.

“[Director] Joel Schumacher gave me two weeks on ‘Batman Forever’ and Brian Grazer and Ron Howard gave me six weeks on ‘Greedy.’ That’s it,” he remembered. “[Then] Chris Guest bailed me out of movie jail with ‘Best in Show’ and I’ve been working ever since.”
