Bam Margera Officially Gets Kicked Off Of 'Jackass 4' For Violating His Contract

 

Source - Bam Margera is off the "Jackass 4" project for good -- and it's all because he couldn't stay in line when it came to his addiction issues ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Bam tell us he was informed last week by producers that he would no longer be part of the movie going forward. The reason is he essentially broke his contract.

We're told the 'Jackass' family wanted Bam to be part of the movie from the get-go, but were worried things would go left because of his past substance use and erratic behavior.

So, in order to achieve what everyone wanted -- at first, anyway -- our sources tell us Bam was presented with a handful of conditions/restrictions he was told he needed to abide by in order to stay on the project. Long story short  we're told he failed to meet his end of the bargain.

As for what he was supposed to do, our sources say there would be routine drug tests -- including urine samples -- plus committing to staying sober, blowing into a breathalyzer, taking his medication and seeing a psychologist while on the job. It's unclear which specific condition was the final straw.

Probably a good thing, right? Bam has been struggling with mental health/addiction issues for a while now and he clearly needs help. Jackass was willing to give him that help and he refused to take it, therefore he's gone. Simple as that. Whether or not this will benefit Bam in the long run has yet to be seen, but I get why the studio had to sever ties...Movies are a business, an expensive business and if someone is a liability to that business you need to let them go. It doesn't matter if they're Tom Arnold or Tom Hanks. On the other hand, Jackass is the family that Bam cares about most so maybe they should've given him another chance? Who knows? All I know is that for the time being Bam will not be in Jackass 4 despite the fact that he claims to be getting help and that STINKS...

Bam alluded to some of these conditions in his OG rant, when he called for a boycott of "Jackass 4" and seemed visibly upset -- only to turn around 24 hours later and say he was getting help. Despite him suggesting things were fine again, we're told he's still fired.

Not much left to say on this one other than, best of luck to Bam. Hopefully he gets himself straightened out. Now here's a compilation of some of Bam's best moments. Simpler times. Enjoy…
