Method Man says his laziness got him killed off on ‘Oz’

Method Man says his laziness helped him get killed off the HBO classic “Oz.”

The rapper-actor said on the premiere of TV show “Established with Angela Yee” that he “really wanted” to be cast on the prison drama, but one workday “I’m just [in bed] and I was like, ‘Oh man, I’m not getting up.’ ”

He said he’d gotten away with such an approach on other projects, “but it didn’t work with these guys … So I showed up the next day and things went fine. Nobody really said nothing to me and the new script came in — and I read it and I was killed off.”

He said he quickly learned his lesson about keeping co-workers waiting.
