Was Alex pretty fired from the VA
Executive summary
The question "Was Alex pretty fired from the VA" cannot be answered affirmatively from the reporting supplied: the documents provided concern Alex Pettyfer, the British actor, and detail disputes and career setbacks in Hollywood—not any employment with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs—so there is no evidence in these sources that anyone named Alex Pettyfer (or a similarly spelled "Alex pretty") was hired by or fired from the VA [1] [2] [3] [4] [5].
1. What the supplied reporting actually covers: Alex Pettyfer’s Hollywood reputation and roles
The material given is biographical and entertainment reporting about actor Alex Pettyfer—profiles and career retrospectives that discuss early breakout roles (Stormbreaker/Stormbreaker–Alex Rider), later films like Magic Mike and I Am Number Four, and accounts of on-set tensions and industry reputation [1] [2] [6] [3].
2. Career friction versus formal dismissal from an unrelated employer
Several pieces explicitly describe industry conflicts—examples include reported clashes with director D.J. Caruso during I Am Number Four, not being invited back for Magic Mike XXL, and anecdotes about a feud with Channing Tatum linked to a tenancy dispute—but these are framed as casting and career consequences within the film business, not as employment actions by a government agency such as the VA [1] [4] [5].
3. No supplied source connects Pettyfer to the VA or a firing from it
Across the seven supplied items—including a Hollywood Reporter feature, Wikipedia entry, filmography listings (Rotten Tomatoes, IMDb), a V Magazine profile, and retrospective pieces—none report any hiring, employment, or termination involving the Department of Veterans Affairs or any government service position for Alex Pettyfer; the reporting consistently centers on film roles and industry relationships [1] [2] [7] [6] [3] [4] [5].
4. Likely reasons for confusion: name similarity and social-media distortion
The absence of VA-related reporting in these sources suggests the question may stem from a misremembered name, a conflation of two different people named Alex, or viral misinformation that attaches a celebrity’s name to an unrelated government personnel story; the supplied pieces themselves document how reputations and rumors have affected Pettyfer’s casting [1] [4] [5], which can make it easy for unrelated claims to stick if circulated without verification.
5. What the existing sources do claim about dismissals and exclusions in film contexts
When discussing why Pettyfer did not return for Magic Mike XXL, reporters and Pettyfer himself point to interpersonal issues, a reported tenancy/rent dispute with Channing Tatum, and perceptions of being difficult to work with rather than a formal "firing" in the industrial-labor sense; these are casting decisions and personal disputes reported in entertainment coverage [4] [5] [1].
6. Final assessment and reporting limitation
There is no evidence in the supplied reporting that "Alex pretty" (or Alex Pettyfer) was fired from the VA; the documents provided document entertainment-industry fallout, casting omissions, and reputation stories about the actor, and they do not cover any government employment or termination at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs [1] [2] [7] [6] [3] [4] [5]. If the question refers to a different individual named Alex or to a specific VA personnel action, the supplied sources do not address that scenario and additional, targeted documents or official VA records would be required to confirm or refute the claim.
