Reservoir Dogs actor Michael Madsen arrested on domestic violence charge
Kill Bill star arrested for domestic battery in Malibu after ‘a disagreement’ with his wife
Michael Madsen has been arrested on a domestic battery charge following “a disagreement” with his wife.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that shortly after midnight on Saturday, they received a call from a woman alleging “her husband pushed her and locked her out of the house”. The woman was later confirmed to be the actor’s wife, DeAnna Madsen.
Madsen, who has starred in multiple Quentin Tarantino films including Reservoir Dogs, The Hateful Eight, Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood and Kill Bill, was arrested in Malibu, California on the misdemeanour charge.
The 66-year-old actor posted a $20,000 (£15,300) bond before being released from custody.
“It was a disagreement between Michael and his wife, which we hope resolves positively for them both,” a representative for Madsen told Variety.
During his career, Madsen also starred in the Free Willy film franchise as Glen Greenwood, the adoptive father of protagonist Jesse Greenwood – played by Jason James Richter in the first three films from 1993 until 1997.
He has also appeared in Thelma & Louise, Sin City and Donnie Brasco, as well as the James Bond film Die Another Day.
