The Sleepy Hollow Leads Allegedly Disliked Each Other To The Point Tom Mison Created One Infamous Show Moment So They Wouldn’t Have To Touch

Nicole Beharie and Tom Mison in Sleepy Hollow

On-screen chemistry is important when it comes to any sort of on-screen pairing. Some people have it, and some don’t. Sometimes on screen chemistry gets carried off-screen, and sometimes, it very much does not. While most would agree that the stars of Fox’s Sleepy Hollow Nicole Beharie and Tom Mison had very good chemistry on screen over the course of three seasons, that apparently was very much not the case off the screen. A new book claims that the tension between them was so great that one iconic part of the series was created specifically so the two would not need to touch each other.

The new book Burn it Down by Maureen Ryan deals with the exploitative practices that exist within Hollywood at both an individual and studio level, revealing behind-the-scenes details regarding numerous TV shows and films. A new piece at THR focuses on the cult favorite series Sleepy Hollow, specifically how co-star Nicole Beharie was treated by various people involved in the production.
