>>81565571Uh I have something similar from star trek.
The guy who played Chakotay in Voyager fucking hated the show. He couldn't just up and quit, so he wanted to be fired. He tried so hard to be fired that he started making outrageous demands or threatened to walk. He demanded pay increases, demanded the writers change the plot, etc. Everything he did was an escalation of a previous attempt to get killed off on the show. He's the reason why Seven and Chakotay ended up together instead of her and the doc, and so on.
Also, the actress who played Tasha in TNG hated the role at first and demanded to be killed off because she thought star trek would flop. Once it turned out to be extremely popular, she begged and begged and begged to be brought back on as a regular member, but they would only give her guest appearances.
Also Data's actor basically did what you're looking for. He fucking hates star trek and that people only recognize him as data and only shows up to fan events because they pay through the ass. He doesn't want anything to do with the show and he's a total dickface irl if you try and talk to him about it.
