Tommy Lee Jones fired his own daughter - because she wouldn’t get out of bed.The ‘Fugitive’ actor’s patience ran out after the 14-year-old refused to get out of bed while helping him film new movie, ‘The Three Burials Of Melquiades Estrada’.He revealed to Premiere magazine: "It was 5.30 in the morning, she’d done three days of beautiful work and I said, ‘OK honey, time to go to work’. "Her response was, ‘Go away!’, so I drove to the set where they said, ‘Where’s the kid?’ "I told them she’d been fired, but behind my back, the staff had slipped over to the hotel and told her, ‘Just this once honey, it might be a really good idea if you were to get up’.That got her motor running."
