Vincent D’Onofrio reveals Barry Sonnenfeld told him his Men in Black performance was “horrible” and made him think he was about to get fired
“Barry would like to clear the set… Not you, Vincent.”
Barry Sonnenfeld: “Can you do that again?… Are you going to do that the whole time?… My God, this is horrible. It’s horrible.”
Vincent D’Onofrio: “Yeah, it’s pretty much my plan. I don’t have a plan B. Like, this really is it.”
“I thought I was done. I thought it was my last hurrah with Barry.”
Barry Sonnenfeld: “Let’s continue and see what happens.”
“We never spoke about it again. I just kept doing that character the way that I brought it in, full out… and I didn’t get fired.”
“Years later, Barry and I talked about it. The trust that he put in me… I can never thank him enough for that.”

The next day, Guillermo del Toro posted messages celebrating animation made by real artists, including the line “Made by humans for humans.” Many in the animation community took it as a jab at the AI project, and backlash built quickly.
By May 30, Gutierrez had pulled out of the program. In a public apology, he said his intention was to spotlight the artists working on the project, not replace them, and promised to do better moving forward.
