Creative or artistic differences are often cited by publicists or media companies as the public reason for a performer's decision to leave a TV series or musical group. TV usage: "Bob Smith left the cast of Murder on Trope Street this season over creative differences with the production team." Music usage: "Bassist Alice Jones left Troperhead due to artistic differences with the band." When they actually mean it, it refers to irreconcilably different artistic visions for the show or band. If they're telling the truth, maybe the new director or producer was pushing the show or band too far in what the performer felt was the wrong direction. Maybe the director wanted more sex and violence on the show to boost ratings, or conversely wanted to remove/tone down the sex and violence to appeal to a broader market. For bands, maybe the bandleader or producer was trying to get the band to tag along with a new musical trend or fad.note Like in the early 1990s when record producers pressured every band on their roster to get flannel shirts, stop washing their hair, and adopt a Nirvana-esque grunge sound. But nine times out of ten, it really means the person quit or got fired due to personal clashes or misconduct note Sexual misconduct, drug addiction, arrest, etc and the PR team is trying their best to sugarcoat it for the media. At least, until the tell-all book comes out, or the social media blowup occurs. Also, anytime someone mentions "scheduling conflicts," it likely means there's been a conflict between the actor or director and producers or studio. Then the actor/director quits or is fired. If there's only one constant member and a steady flow of departures and inductions, this is usually an indication of a Prima Donna Director at the very least and is also usually a sign that the lone holdout is a total diva who doesn't know how to share the spotlight. If the reverse is true and one person gets fired from everything they're involved in (or quits under contentious circumstances), odds are that they're a complete pain to work with and wear out their welcome in short order. A frequent joke that's made by observers in this situation is that the creative differences were simple: Either "She/he was creative, the [producers/rest of the band] weren't." or "[They] wanted to be creative, She/he wanted to be different.", depending on who is felt to be the more talented party. A common factor behind Revolving Door Bands. See also Hostility on the Set. |

The director of the first Aero Fighters, Shin Nakamura, left Video System over his disagreement with the company's decision to focus development on the Neo Geo (which only supported a standard 4:3 aspect ratio instead of the 3:4 aspect ratio used for Aero Fighters and Turbo Force) and founded Psikyo to continue making shmups in that vein. Ironically, Psikyo would much later release a sequel to Strikers 1945 for the Neo Geo while Video System would develop Aero Fighters 2 and Aero Fighters 3 as Neo Geo games before returning to the original screen orientation for later installments. | |

The original head writers for Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics), Ken Penders and Karl Bollers, came to butt heads very badly at the end of their run, leading to both of them to quit, though it's said that Karl was the only one who quit and Ken was "let go". Their fighting got so vicious and resulted in so much Kudzu Plot and Aborted Arc that the next writer, Ian Flynn, had to spend the entire first year of his run untangling the insane mass of plot threads the two left in their wake. To better understand this: Ken Penders was head writer for a time but then following issue 50 went to focus on the Knuckles comic. Karl took over and the two seemed to be out of each other's hair until the Knuckles comic was canceled, putting the two head writers together. For a while, Ken had Knuckles back-up stories to Karl's main Sonic stories, but when the back-ups were abandoned, the two ended up working together and the messes began. |

Master of Orion III suffered something of a civil war on the creative team between the lead designer and the art director. The lead designer, Alan Emrich, wanted to more or less continue in the tradition of MoO II, adding more features such as religion, governmental corruption and the exploration of black holes, and of course new races and new racial abilities, but not fundamentally breaking away from the 4X Space Opera mold that had made II so successful. The art director, Rantz Hoseley, was having none of that, though: he wanted to have a more realistic simulation of a complex galactic empire, one that you couldn't run yourself and had to automate, and he also hated the humanoid aliens of the series (comparing them to People in Rubber Suits). Hoseley won the internal fight, and Emrich was forced out, leading to Master of Orion III. | |

Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna brought in Hiroyuki Kakudou (director of Adventure and 02) as a creative and lore consultant, but he left the project over the film's premise, which went directly against one of the rules he'd established for that continuity; that being anyone can have a Digimon, regardless of age. | |

This is what caused Alterbeast to lose everyone in the band and ruined relations between Andrew Lamb and most of the other personnelnote he never fell out with Mikey Wilson and has long since made amends with Monte Barnard and Gabe Seeber, but Rusty Cornell and Michael Zamora still hate him and refuse to have anything to do with him. A lengthy and somewhat troubled US tour had brought his controlling tendencies to the forefront, and his anger at having to go through what were apparently unpleasant but expected pitfalls of being in a low-level touring act magnified those tendencies. After tensions between him and everyone else (including former drummer and emergency fill-in Gabe Seeber) had reached a boiling point, the band dropped off the tour early, went home, and dissolved almost completely save for Lamb, who spent the better part of the year rebuilding the band. | |

The Simpsons went through this with Klasky-Csupo concerning its animation. The studio did the animation for the Tracey Ullman shorts and the first 63 episodes, however the overall look of the animation more often than not was deemed unfitting to the creators' needs, to the point where the first episode was demanded to be redone. The animation was shifted over to Film Roman by the fourth season. | |

Shirobako has an In-Universe example which hit the studio the series follows badly. Because the editor sent by the book's publishing house is a Lazy Bum, a crisis is formed when the original author of 3rd Aerial Girls Squad is unhappy with certain design and plot decisions by the studio which could cause an Executive Veto and the show (and the studio) to fail. Both times, it causes months of planning on multiple projects to go flying out the window and makes an already difficult production process much worse. The first issue comes up in Episode 15, when the editor reveals the author didn't like the designs of the characters and makes the studio redo them... right after they completed animation on the first episode. The second issue happens in Episode 22, where the editor reveals that the author didn't like the show's script for not being a Downer Ending, right when the studio had nearly finished production of the series! Kinoshita, the show's director is so pissed that he arranged a meeting with the author himself and gets the editor fired. The author is reasonable enough to allow for the studio to write a Bittersweet Ending very close to the original to prevent massive Mood Whiplash. |

The NWA-TNA agreement actually did end seven years early because of creative differences. The NWA had standards for its titleholders it wanted to directly enforce and TNA had already pulled out of the NWA anyway and wanted to promote material more distinct to its own brand. NWA 'abrogating' the deal is how most news sources reported it, however. | |

Metalcore band Volumes have had this happen to them twice over the span of their career: The first was the very acrimonious split with co-vocalist Michael Barr. Drug issues and personality conflicts with the rest of the group (especially Gus "YungYogi" Farias) forced him to exit the band near the end of 2015. Barr mostly retired from metal until getting featured on Dualist's Inner Word in 2018. Barr would later rejoin Volumes in 2020. The second time this happened was in late 2019 when vocalist Gus Farias got forced out of the band. According to Gus, bassist Raad Soudani got the rights to Volumes' name and back catalog of music, becoming the full owner of the brand and kicked Gus out. Other have said that Gus was kicked out in combination of drug and personality issues as well as his own trap project, YungYogi, gaining popularity in 2019. Gus has made it very clear that he was forced out and puts the blame squarely on Raad. Subverted with Gus's brother, guitarist, and band co-founder Diego "Yaygo" Farias who left the band around the same time as Gus. Yaygo wasn't touring much with the band other than festival appearances as he realized that production was his true calling and left the band amicably. Tragically, Yaygo's post-Volumes plans won't come to be. |

When Morbius the Living Vampire's first solo series started in the early 1990s, it was helmed by writer Len Kaminski and penciler Ron Wagner. Wagner, however, felt that Kaminski's stories were too character-driven, and according to Kaminski complained about this to Marvel's editorial staff as well as leaving "snide margin notes in which he made his personal opinion of my plots clear". Moreover, Wagner ignored Kaminski's attempts to get in touch with him so that they could discuss how the comic should be done. After 9 issues of this Kaminski had had enough and quit. | |

Power Rangers writer Judd Lynn eventually quit because of creative differences with Executive Producer Jonathan Tzachor (funny enough, Lynn would replace Tzachor as EP years later when the latter was fired after a much maligned 4-year run). Jackie Marchand also left at the same time as Lynn, though she would return to the show two years later at which point, it changed hands from Saban Entertainment to Disney. | |

Warbringer has had a lot of departures that have mostly been due to their heavy touring schedule, but a few were truly creative (John Laux) and personal (Ben Bennett). The former had been growing tired of metal and heavy music in general for a while, and by Kevill's admission, some of the more upbeat punk-influenced material on IV: Empires Collapse was intended to placate him (which failed, as he left almost right after the album dropped). Bennett, meanwhile, had started out as a live fill-in on their early tours due to Andy Laux's inability to tour (as he was still in high school) before being made full-time, and his arrogance, incredibly abrasive personality, and drug issues made him quickly wear out his welcome and culminated in an incident on a very large tour where he kept making incredibly cruel and hurtful personal digs at Nic Ritter that finally resulted in Ritter running out of the van and punching a dumpster hard enough to break his hand, which put him out of commission for the rest of the tour and made Kevill angry enough to pull Bennett out of the van and stomp on his head before kicking him out the minute the tour had concluded. | |

Ulf Andersson, the voice actor of Wolf in PAYDAY 2, didn't provide new voice lines for his character in months. At first, people thought the damage he caused to his vocal cords when he yelled very loudly in a "Twelve Days of Christmas" parody was the reason why he sat out for so long. Ulf later revealed that he had a falling out with his brother, who was the CEO of Starbreeze (the developer and publisher behind the game). Ulf did not like how his brother was running the company as well as his brother's extremely poor attitude, so he quit and went with a few other developers to make their own game, GTFO. | |

In Japan, cases such as these are known for splintering companies. Most famous being Shooto and Fighting Network RINGS out of the Universal Wrestling Federation and Pro Wrestling NOAH from All Japan Pro Wrestling. Really, though, a wrestler leaving for any reason might splinter a company, such as Wrestle 1 from All Japan after The Great Muta resigned in penance for Taru assaulting someone during the off hours and then was refused re entry back into the company when the new brass started running it into the ground. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Avengers: Edward Norton was let go early on from playing Bruce Banner despite having played him in the 2008 film. When asked why Marvel stated that "Our decision is definitely not one based on monetary factors, but instead rooted in the need for an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit of our other talented cast members", which implied Norton was fired for not getting along with the other actors and crew, as well as butting heads with brass over the screenplay (an issue that was prominent when Norton did American History X). Norton's agent disputed this claim, as did Norton (who said he enjoyed the experience but didn't want to lock in the role long-term) but regardless the part was recast with Mark Ruffalo, who acted in the role to widespread acclaim. Patty Jenkins left the director chair of Thor: The Dark World because of disagreements over the film's tone and genre. She would have the last laugh when she joined the rival DC Extended Universe and directed Wonder Woman (2017), which handily surpassed The Dark World both critically and commercially. This along with constant Executive Meddling is what led to Edgar Wright to leave Ant-Man just a few months before filming was set to begin. Wright said in a 2017 interview promoting Baby Driver that he left due to being uncomfortable on directing a film with a screenplay that he didn't write (though elements of his screenplay would be incorporated into the final script) and busy commitments on three films during the film's eight-year preproduction prevented him from doing more rewrites (despite contrary belief that he was enforced to rewrite the film into the MCU). He has admitted that he hasn't seen the film and stated he will probably not see it ever, feeling that it would be like him seeing his ex-girlfriend having sex with another man, as in it would bring back bad memories of his time working on the film. Disagreements between Marvel Studios and Scott Derrickson caused Derrickson to quit as director for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Derrickson was replaced by Sam Raimi, though he remains involved as an executive producer. |

The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum ran into this problem between the head writer Redskin122004 and the co-authors he brought on to the project, most notably over certain plot points, issues in the side stories, and the depictions of certain characters (particularly the Human Liberation Front, Celestia, Discord, and Chrysalis). Over the course of 2016, these creative disagreements progressively worsened and became increasingly personal. According to Doctor Fluffy, VoxAdam, Kizuna Tallis, Sledge115 and Jed R, working on Spectrum through that year was a deeply stressful experience creatively and personally. This culminated in the team splitting up on May 2017, with the five aforementioned authors (plus a few others) going on to launch a reboot of the story and start over fresh. | |

The X-Men Film Series had them twice. Matthew Vaughn left X-Men: The Last Stand early in production feeling the time constraints wouldn't allow him to make the movie he wanted (family issues didn't help either; him having to just produce X-Men: Days of Future Past was less this than just deciding to make Kingsman: The Secret Service earlier). During pre-production of Deadpool 2, Tim Miller left due to creative differences with the film's star and co-producer Ryan Reynolds as Miller was interested in having the sequel being a big-budget film, while Reynolds wanted another "cheap" movie like the original. | |

Why Sabaton changed every member except lead vocalist Joakim Brodén and bassist Pär Sundström after recording Carolus Rex in 2012. They were pretty open about the dispute: the other members (guitarists Rikard Sundén and Oskar Montelius, drummer Daniel Mullback, and keyboardist Daniel Mÿhr) wanted to tour less, despite the band's growing international popularity, and have more input into songwriting, and split from the band amicably to form Civil War. Brodén and Sundström recruited new guitarists and drummers for the subsequent Swedish Empire Tour, and is heard thanking the audience at Woodstock Festival Poland on Swedish Empire Live for accepting the new members. | |

It's been said this is what scuttled John Kricfalusi's reboot of Beany and Cecil in 1988 after only five telecasts, although ABC says it was because of unapproved material and missed deadlines. | |

Director Roger Allers saw two while in Disney. First his co-director in King of the Jungle, which would become The Lion King, George Scribner, left disagreeing with Allers and the producers wanting to make the movie a musical, when he wanted a documentary-like film more focused on natural aspects. And then Allers himself left Kingdom of the Sun as his intent of making another dramatic musical clashed with Mark Dindal pushing for a screwball comedy, which was what Disney sided with to rework the project into The Emperor's New Groove. | |

An occasional occurrence in Professional Wrestling, sometimes with mixed results. In Japan, cases such as these are known for splintering companies. Most famous being Shooto and Fighting Network RINGS out of the Universal Wrestling Federation and Pro Wrestling NOAH from All Japan Pro Wrestling. Really, though, a wrestler leaving for any reason might splinter a company, such as Wrestle 1 from All Japan after The Great Muta resigned in penance for Taru assaulting someone during the off hours and then was refused re entry back into the company when the new brass started running it into the ground. WCW and New Japan Pro-Wrestling's agreement fell through due to NJPW not being fans of Vince Russo's booking, Eric Bischoff trying to tell NJPW how to book and WCW trying to enter a talent exchange with All Japan.note Probably also not helping was the deal being really one-sided in WCW's favor, in the sense that while NJPW was sending top tier talent like Tatsumi Fujinami, Shinya Hashimoto, Masahiro Chono, Jushin Thunder Liger, and The Great Muta, WCW would send guys like Ice Train, Glacier, and nWo Sting. To their credit NJPW was usually able to get these guy over to at least some degree, in fact the fake Sting is more popular in Japan than the real one More common in WWE is the phrase "we wish wrestler the best in their future endeavors". There's also "Confronting their personal demons" which usually translates as "too drunk/stoned to work".note This comes from an interview with Jake The Snake Roberts in 1996, where he was talking about how becoming a born again Christian helped him overcome his addictions, which he called his demons. As it turned out Jake wasn't really sober at all and would be fired for being 9 hours late to a Monday Night Raw taping a few months after that interview took place. The NWA-TNA agreement actually did end seven years early because of creative differences. The NWA had standards for its titleholders it wanted to directly enforce and TNA had already pulled out of the NWA anyway and wanted to promote material more distinct to its own brand. NWA 'abrogating' the deal is how most news sources reported it, however. |

Around two-thirds of the way through the anime adaptation of His and Her Circumstances, the creative differences between author Masami Tsuda and director Hideaki Anno reached to the point that she demanded him to be dismissed; Anno made the anime far too comedic for Tsuda's tastenote which is quite jarring considering that this is the same guy who gave us the infamously dark Neon Genesis Evangelion; she wanted a more angsty and plot-driven series, similar to the angstier turns that the story would eventually take. Once Anno left, his assistant Kazuya Tsurumaki completed the series... ironically, making it even more comedic in process. On the other hand, back then Tsurumaki's style wasn't the screwball type GAINAX was in general and he in particular would later become famous for, but in more conventional Romantic Comedy, which was more acceptable for the mangaka. | |

Julian LeFay, who is affectionately know as the "Father of The Elder Scrolls" because he spearheaded the work on the first two games in the series, Arena and Daggerfall, was a veteran of the early days at Bethesda Softworks, but was left out in the cold by the changes in culture the company underwent in the latter half of the 90s. That he wasn't picked for the development team on the third main game in the series he had a big hand in creating, namely Morrowind, was apparently the final straw and he formally quit Bethesda in 1998, citing creative differences as the reason. While LeFay did have some sort of involvement in Morrowind, it appears to have been minimal by all accounts and he is only credited as a contractor on the project. | |

There were disagreements on the set of Keeping Up Appearances between writer Roy Clarke and producer-director Harold Snoad, mostly that Roy Clarke rarely watched his own shows, and although he wrote witty dialogue, the practicalities of the scripts were often hopelessly implausible, or left to the discretion of Snoad. Patricia Routledge refused to act some of the scenes as they were first written, because she thought they were too unbelievable. Harold Snoad ended up rewriting many of the episodes. | |

Cattle Decapitation departed with Dave Astor over a case of this that was equal parts creative (they wanted to write more complex and death metal-based material, he wanted to stick to grindier fare; some of this may have been due to his stagnating technical ability and apparent refusal to take lessons) and personal (relations with him and the rest of the band, especially Travis Ryan, had deteriorated to the point where he had to go or the band would likely collapse). They still haven't reconciled with him, and given Ryan's notoriously strong dislike for him, it's highly unlikely that they ever will. | |

There was always some tension between multi-instrumentalist John Cale and front-man Lou Reed during their days in Velvet Underground, but matters came to a head in the summer of 1968 when deciding what to do after the sonic assault of White Light/White Heat. The final result was Reed threatening to dissolve the group unless Cale was sacked, with which Sterling Morrison and Maureen Tucker reluctantly complied. | |

Continuing the trend with John Kricfalusi, The Ripping Friends was also a victim of this. John and his crew at Spumco hoped to create a Spiritual Successor to Ren & Stimpy with the series, but Executive Meddling from Fox Kids forbade John from using his trademark Off-Model animation style and asked for something more conventional. To make matters worse, production studio Funbag Animation was more than happy to oblige to the executives' demands, as Funbag production manager John Shaw despised Kricfalusi and refused to follow any of his feedback or his style guide. Ultimately, the show came out absolutely nothing like what Kricfalusi wanted, and he has chosen to distance himself from the series in its entirety. | |

The original creative team of Spider-Man, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, eventually split after the comic's third year. While for years rumors insisted the falling-out was over disagreements over the identity of the Green Goblin (Spidey's arch-enemy caused his creators to split! It's almost too poetic), Ditko made a statement shortly before his death setting the record straight, that Osborn being the Goblin was one of the few things he and Stan agreed on. The split was due to the two men's very different attitudes, personalities, and politics, similar to Lee's contretemps with Jack Kirby. The first issue of Spider-Man with John Romita replacing Ditko as artist had a vague statement from Stan on the letters page simply stating that Ditko had left due to "personal reasons". | |

Why Cee Lo Green left Goodie Mob to eventually form Gnarls Barkley. Goodie Mob had eschewed the social-consciousness of their first two albums in favor of a more crunk style with World Party, which Cee-Lo hated. Judging from his solo albums and work with Danger Mouse, it's very similar to the Sliders case. He was creative; they weren't. | |

The Faceless has had a lengthy history of this to the point where they have had two complete lineup departures (one over the course of several months, the other over the course of a day). While Michael Keene's drug issues and unpleasant personality were known but unspoken in industry circles and were the cause of most of the departures, it wasn't until the second mass departure in March of 2018 that a former member told the world just what the deal was, as an Instagram post from Keene that contained an egregious example of Never My Fault kicked off a "The Reason You Suck" Speech from former guitarist Justin McKinney, who publicly eviscerated him. | |

An inversion of the typical "actor/writer leaves because he's pissed with the producers" setup of this trope was Growing Pains, where it was the producers who quit after Kirk Cameron became a born-again Christian and started forcing his values onto the production, pissing off just about the entire cast and crew in the process. The producers did try to get rid of Kirk first, but ABC executives told them basically "It's not your faces on the cover of Tiger Beat", so they left. | |

Doctor Who: Maureen O'Brien, who played Vicki, got on very well with William Hartnell both in-character and on-set. When a new production team led by John Wiles took over, he began moving the show in a Darker and Edgier, Failure Hero-led, Internal Deconstruction direction that Hartnell disliked. O'Brien formed a team with him and supported all of Hartnell's attempts to Wag the Director, and Wiles decided to fire her in the hope of breaking Hartnell. Vicki was first pencilled in to be killed off, but was eventually Put on a Bus to Hell to get rid of the actress sooner. William Hartnell's departure was also at least in part due to creative differences with a new production team (although his failing health was also a factor). He saw the show as a children's programme, but the new producers had other ideas. "So did I, so I left", as he said in a letter to a fan. During the Troubled Production of "Nightmare of Eden", the entire cast and crew had it in for the director Alan Bromly, an ageing director pulled out of retirement, unused to modern production schedules and values and with a very authoritarian attitude. This especially inflamed Tom Baker, who had been Wagging The Director frequently and who felt he was best when he could Throw It In! and do unscripted business. Seeing Bromly as incompetent, Baker took rather sadistic pleasure using his acerbic wit to bully and humiliate him in front of the crew, eroding his authority further, and their animosity eventually culminated in a screaming match between them in the BBC corridors which producer Graham Williams had to intervene in. The chaos had sent recording well behind schedule and Bromly was decided to have been responsible. Bromly quit, citing creative differences with Baker, and Williams, who had become sick of Baker's difficult personality already, announced his intention to quit at the end of the season also because of creative differences with Baker. Williams' replacement was John Nathan-Turner, who Baker hated, and who wanted a new Doctor to leave his stamp on the show - so Baker eventually left the role stating he felt he had no further to go with his character and citing creative differences with Nathan-Turner. On "State of Decay", writer Terrance Dicks and director Peter Moffatt clashed with script editor Christopher H. Bidmead. They were in favour of a Hammer Horror approach, which he didn't think was the style that he wanted for the series. The most notorious and damaging example was the conflict between the producer John Nathan-Turner and script editor Eric Saward over the ending of the "Trial of a Time Lord" season. Saward, out of his general love for Darker and Edgier content and his hero worship of the recently departed writer of the arc Robert Holmes, wanted the season to end with a Cliffhanger in which the Doctor and his Enemy Without the Valeyard were seemingly either dead or trapped eternally in a Sealed Evil in a Duel situation. Nathan-Turner felt, with considerable justification, that since the BBC wanted to cancel the show altogether, writing an ending that could be seen as a Bolivian Army Ending for the whole show was a very bad idea. Saward, whose relationship with Nathan-Turner was already strained due to personality clashes and his belief that Nathan-Turner was paying insufficient attention to the artistic content of the series, accused Nathan-Turner of having no respect for Holmes' last work, quit with no finalised script for the final episode, threatened to sue the BBC if they made a final episode with any similarity to any draft he'd worked on, and then gave an interview to a fan publication viciously slagging off Nathan-Turner. The whole affair led to a somewhat disjointed on-screen end to a season that, in reality, had been seen as the show's make-or-break chance to avoid cancellation, and contributed to the show's actual cancellation a few years afterwards. Christopher Eccleston left the revival, due to his fights with the executives "over the way things were being run", and, according to him, his distaste for non-acting personnel getting bullied by directors. He wouldn't return to the show until fifteen years later, when it was confirmed that Eccleston would reprise his role as the Ninth Doctor in the audio plays. |

Digimon Adventure 02: The two head writers for this series Genki Yoshimura and Atsushi Maekawa had two very different styles of writing, Maekawa's being story driven light-hearted stories, and Yoshimura's being character driven darker stories, both were told to write in their own preferred styles. This lead to them not seeing eye to eye on how the story should go, which resulted in a lot of fillers, to cover up for the time where they couldn't come to an agreement. Meanwhile, the head writer for Adventure, Satoru Nishizono, left the Digimon project because he didn't want for a sequel to his series to be made. Much of the main staff including Chiaki Konaka couldn't stand the executive meddling anymore, and so were ready to break their contracts and leave the project, but Bandai, unwilling to let them do this, gave them their own series, to mess around with instead. |

Prehistoric Earth: A massive number of these unfolded between co-authors Drew Luczynski and Nathanoraptor over the course of writing. In fact, quite often the story ended up on unintentionally long hiatuses due to disagreements between the two writers over characters (i.e. Luczynski having low faith in some of the characters' ability to carry a story on their own and wanting for the story to revolve more around a single clear cut main protagonist, Nathanoraptor taking umbrage to Luczynski trying to push his own personal favorite into a prominent position too early, etc.) and story direction. Eventually, after one especially long hiatus triggered by these disagreements, they were eventually able to work out a system that largely put an end to the problem. And even this wasn't enough to prevent a few more minor instances of this from occurring afterward, or Luczynski from eventually developing Creator's Apathy and later outright trying to disavow his involvement with the story altogether. | |

Creative differences lead to the cancellation of Darius III (distinct from Darius Gaiden), as explained by Taito employee Takatsuna Senba. While Senba wanted to retain the distinctive multi-screen setup of the previous arcade installments, Taito thought the three-screen monitors were onerous and impractical and tried to get him to develope a single screen game instead. As a result, development stalled and Senba would instead make a new shooter named Metal Black (which is often thought to feature assets repurposed from Darius III). | |

The Avengers: Edward Norton was let go early on from playing Bruce Banner despite having played him in the 2008 film. When asked why Marvel stated that "Our decision is definitely not one based on monetary factors, but instead rooted in the need for an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit of our other talented cast members", which implied Norton was fired for not getting along with the other actors and crew, as well as butting heads with brass over the screenplay (an issue that was prominent when Norton did American History X). Norton's agent disputed this claim, as did Norton (who said he enjoyed the experience but didn't want to lock in the role long-term) but regardless the part was recast with Mark Ruffalo, who acted in the role to widespread acclaim. | |

Superman: Richard Donner was let go midway through production of Superman II due to clashing with producers Alexander and Illya Salkind as far back as the first film. Donner wanted a serious, respectful film while they wanted a campy film akin to Batman (1966). Wes Craven was initially hired to direct Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, but he was replaced with Sidney J. Furie due to creative differences with Christopher Reeve. |

The reason why Dennis Stratton was fired from Iron Maiden. He was writing songs that Steve Harris felt were too poppy, and when the band rejected them, he left. There were also other creative\personality clashes (Stratton only joined the band because he needed work, was unwilling to listen to heavy music all the time like the other bandmembers and at a certain point travelled separatedly from them, and his attempt to mix "The Phantom of the Opera" in a Queen-like manner was promptly rejected by Steve). According to the man himself, their early vocalist Paul Di'Anno was so bored of playing metal that he started drinking heavily. This alcoholism caused the band to fire him, which he apparently didn't mind that much. He much preferred to play punk music, and somewhat resented the fact that he'd missed out on the first wave of British punk by playing in a metal band during that time. Later on, he's had to return to the old Iron Maiden songs. Adrian Smith left early in the production of No Prayer for the Dying because he was unhappy with the direction the band was taking. One album later, Bruce Dickinson decided to go away as he was becoming burnt out and wanted to focus more on his solo career. Both would end up rejoining the band by the end of the decade. |

The Warriors is known for Fox (Thomas Waites) leaving before the end of filming. Suffice to say they dropped him... Very painfully. | |

Adrian Smith left early in the production of No Prayer for the Dying because he was unhappy with the direction the band was taking. One album later, Bruce Dickinson decided to go away as he was becoming burnt out and wanted to focus more on his solo career. Both would end up rejoining the band by the end of the decade. | |

The 2001 anime adaptation of Fruits Basket, produced by Studio DEEN, had a lot of disagreements going on behind the scenes. Creator Natsuki Takaya—who, due to a hand injury, had to take a break from drawing the manga and was able to have more direct involvement with the anime—and director Akitaroh Daichi drove each other nuts. During production, Takaya gained a reputation for being a control freak; for one, she demanded that big-name voice actors be cast for her characters, something Daichi normally avoids. She also had issues with the character designs and how the anime's tone was Lighter and Softer with more emphasis on comedy. By the time the anime finished airing, she was highly disappointed with how it turned out. It would never have a second season since DEEN wouldn't let any director except Daichi handle the series, and Daichi has made it very clear he won't work with Takaya again. It took nearly 18 years for there to be another anime adaptation that would be more faithful to the original manga's plot and tone, but this time handled by TMS Entertainment and with a completely different voice cast. | |

The Adventures of Duane & BrandO experienced this trope at one point. It turned from a permanent breakup in to a 6 month hiatus, with the band members claiming that the breakup was over a stolen ice cream sandwich (it really dealt with extramarital affair) and keeping their respective new projects open for when they needed to do solo work. | |

This happened to The Kentucky Headhunters. Lead singer Ricky Lee Phelps wanted to sing more traditional country instead of the Headhunters' style of Southern rock, so he and his brother Doug (then the group's bassist) quit the Headhunters in 1993 to form Brother Phelps. Mark S. Orr and Anthony Kenney took over on lead vocals and bass respectively, but Orr only lasted for one album because of creative differences of his own — he wanted to "do something else", while fans, critics, and even the rest of the band thought that his vocal style didn't fit. As a result, Doug parted ways with his brother and rejoined the Headhunters, taking over his brother's former role as lead singer (while also becoming a Lead Bassist after Kenney quit). | |

A source of contention between some fans (and ex-fans) of MegaTokyo is the "creative differences" that led to the break-up between the artist (and current writer) Fred Gallagher and former writer Rodney Caston, ultimately resulting in the comic's turn from straight comedy to dramedy. It is telling that the last comic Rodney wrote before Fred took over predicted exactly how the comic under Fred would be... kinda like a Dating Sim. | |

The creator of Harvest Moon, Yasuhiro Wada, left the series after Harvest Moon: Animal Parade due to this. He had wanted the series to be a Slice of Life series about relationships in a small farming village, but Marvelous wanted more emphasis on romance, farming, and gimmicks. After the series deviated too far from his original vision, he left and formed his own studio. | |

After his experience with Firefly, Joss Whedon refused to work with FOX for years because of this, foremost being an early cancellation. He only relented with Dollhouse because star Eliza Dushku had a 3-series deal with the network; Dushku brought Whedon in. | |

While Twice Upon a Time was eventually finished and had a theatrical and home video run, writer and director John Korty and producer Bill Couturié had pretty different ideas of what the movie was supposed to be like, to where two different cuts of the movie exists: The Couturié cut contains frequent swearing and lewd innuendo, while the Korty cut excises all swearing (save for a mild Precision F-Strike that gave it a PG rating). That these two would not yield an inch from their stances is why Twice Upon a Time was unavailable for television airing or home video release after 1998—any attempt to show or distribute the movie would lead to the person responsible for the other cut threatening legal action. Though that changed in 2015, when Warner Archive released both cuts on DVD. | |

The Little Pony Legend: Ultimately this is what stalled out the Journey of Iris part of the saga. Apparently there was a quarrel between the original author and Equestriakin over backstories and length for the story among other things, and eventually Maggiesheartlove decided to take back full creative control of the story. The party was amicable thankfully, but did stall the release time. | |

Jack Klugman didn't care for Glen A. Larson's approach on Quincy, M.E., eventually telling NBC that either Larson left or he would. The network chose Klugman (the show lasted a lot longer without Larson than with, effectively vindicating Klugman... soapboxing and all). | |

Unearth have had several instances of this in their history: In an interview with Decibel Magazine in September 2006, the band's three remaining founding members at the time revealed that they originally came together as a result of creative differences in their previous groupsnote the interviewer describes this as a relatively common phenomenon in metal and hardcore circles. The band's four original instrumentalists, guitarists Ken Susi and Buz McGrath, bassist Chris "Rover" Rybicki and drummer Mike Rudberg,note the latter two left in between the band's first and second album; Rover became Persona Non Grata in Canada due to legal issues in 2001, while Rudberg suffered a career-ending Creator Breakdown at SXSW 2003, which led to him performing in the nude only to freak out and head back home the next morning first came together under the name Point 04 in 1997 with a different vocalist, whom Ken and Buz declined to identify by name. They also didn't say much about this person's expulsion beyond that they got sick of him and started looking at other options, with Ken quickly zeroing in on Second Division vocalist Trevor Phipps, whom he knew was having creative issues of his own. Trevor was more revealing about the issues inside Second Division, specifically that he was at odds with the band's lead guitarist, whom he described as an "extreme hardcore kid" who refused to integrate any kind of metal riffs into the band's sound. Ironically, Trevor was actually rather resistant to take a chance on a new project and kept shooting down Ken and the other members, most famously when the group approached him while he was recovering from appendicitis. Ken eventually arranged a Bait-and-Switch by selling Trevor on a side project but making sure Buz knew when they'd be meeting up so they could try selling him again. This last effort finally convinced Trevor to let go of Second Division and join up with Point 04, which took the name Unearth shortly after on Rudberg's suggestion. Also present at the 2006 interview was the band's second full-time drummer, Mike Justian, who replaced Rudberg in early 2004. He would only last another ten months, though: the band put out a press release on May 10, 2007 announcing Justian's expulsion from Unearth effective the previous night. Said presser specifically mentioned both creative and personal differences, but no details ever emerged about the true nature of these differences. Whatever they were, it seems Justian eventually worked them out, at least with Trevor and Buz, as he was brought back in June 2022 following the departure of their fourth drummer, Nick Pierce. The band would recruit Derek Kerswill as their third drummer in late 2007, only for him to leave in October 2010. The press release announcing his departure specified that his departure was amicable and based entirely on "musical differences". Kerswill himself didn't contest this, explaining that he was a "rock-style" drummer who kept getting recruited by metal bands, and that he'd been friends with Unearth prior to his recruitment and figured it would be fun, but burned out within a few years. He even returned for one show in 2011 when the band was between long-term fill-ins. When the band announced that Ken Susi would be going on hiatus in summer 2022, only a few eyebrows were raised at first despite being announced simultaneously with Pierce's departure and the reveal of a new album in development. However, there was quite a stir when As I Lay Dying revealed their new line-up at the same time, which featured both Nick and Ken, taking spots left open by the departures of Jordan Mancino and Nick Hipa, respectively. By that September it had emerged that Ken had actually left in late winter of 2022, hadn't played on the new album and had at most one songwriting creditnote in contrast to Pierce, who wrote and recorded all the drum parts before he left. By the time Ken's departure officially became permanent in March 2023, it had been revealed that he was at odds with Buz over the band's musical direction while his interpersonal relationships with the other members had deteriorated, especially between him and Trevor (As with Justian in 2007, though, specifics about these conflicts have not been revealed by any party.) Both Ken and the remaining members stated that a mutual impasse had been reached and they couldn't salvage their relationship. |
