Because of this, he refused to work with her on "Romancing the Stone."
Michael Douglas has spoken out for the first time about rumors circulating about his refusal to work with actress Debra Winger in Romancing the Stone. The actor confirmed that Debra bit his arm through his skin.
As he recounted on the 100th episode of Rob Lowe's podcast Literally!, the sting after a friendly party caused Winger to lose the female lead in the 1984 action-adventure.
The role eventually went to Kathleen Turner.
