Well, sort of
Reagan moved to the less prestigious Universal lot, where he starred with a chimpanzee in "Bedtime for Bonzo
Reagan's agent, Lew Wasserman, managed to smooth over the dispute, but Reagan's contract with Warners was not renewed
If I hadn't written that interview, would Ronald Reagan still have gotten into politics?
Most likely â€â€? and may have sent him on the road to the White House Well, I can always go back to being a sports announcer "
When Jack Warner, the imperious studio boss, read the interview, he blew his top
Reagan was always a reliable interview in his acting years, provocative in his assessments of the film industry; combative when the Screen Actors Guild, of which he was president, was fighting the studios; always congenial
After 15 years with the studio, Reagan left without any official notice, not even a farewell from Jack Warner "
It was during the days when most stars' careers were tightly controlled by studio chiefs At least I could do no worse "And there'll be some changes made AP Reporter Recalls Getting Reagan Fired
Jun 6, 12:56 PM EST
This is the story of how I got Ronald Reagan fired from Warner Bros He fired off a letter to Reagan demanding to know if the story was accurate
"After spending most of the last year in bed, I'm going to concentrate on my career in 1950," Reagan told me
On a January day in 1950, I encountered Reagan in a feisty mood on the set of the Warner melodrama "Storm Warning," starring Ginger Rogers and Doris Day I'm going to pick my own pictures
It was his first movie job in a year because of a leg injury suffered in a charity baseball game I have come to the conclusion that I can do as good a job of picking as the studio has done If so, he wrote, "it was very unfortunate for you to do so But the resulting dispute with Warners and the subsequent decline in his acting career might have given him a nudge toward greater things
"With the parts I've had, I could telephone my lines in, and it would make no difference "
He made a few more movies after that, but they were mostly low-budget Westerns and action films, and Reagan eventually abandoned his acting career to devote more time to his longtime love of politics
