John Goodman makes sad admission about Roseanne Barr years after her firing

John Goodman is looking back at his relationship with Roseanne Barr.

The “Righteous Gemstones” star, 73, revealed that he hasn’t spoken to Barr, 72, in “about seven or eight years” during an interview with the Hollywood Reporter published Friday.

“I’d rather doubt if she wants to talk to me,” he added.

Goodman and Barr starred as on-screen spouses on “Roseanne” for nine seasons from 1988 to 1997.

The ABC sitcom returned for a 10th season in 2018, but posted several controversial tweets — including one in which she compared former Barack Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett to an ape.

“Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” President of ABC Entertainment Channing Dungey announced at the time.

Barr later claimed that “God told me” to send the racist 2018 tweet that ultimately derailed her career.

Still, Goodman looks back at his time with the comedian on the original run of “Roseanne” fondly.

“We hit it off from jump street,” he recalled. “She made me laugh, and I made her laugh, and wow, it was so much fun.”

“We’d get so many viewers for the show back then — 20, 30 million people,” Goodman added. “Things are so different now, but it was a special time.”

After “Roseanne” was canceled in May 2018, ABC ordered a spinoff series titled “The Conners.”

The spinoff saw Goodman (Dan Conner), Laurie Metcalf (Jackie), Sara Gilbert (Darlene) and more reprise their “Roseanne” characters, and “The Conners” aired for seven seasons from 2018 to 2025.

Barr’s character was killed off after suffering an opioid overdose. She later claimed that the show’s producers asked her to guest star on “The Conners” as a ghost, but she rejected the offer.

“They called me and asked me if I would like to come back as a guest star,” she alleged in her “Roseanne Barr Is America” documentary. “You’re coming back as a ghost.”

“You’re asking me to come back to the show that you f–ing stole from me and killed my ass, and now you want me to show up because you got s–t f–ing ratings and play a ghost,” Barr added.

The series finale of “The Connors” aired on April 23, and the last scene saw Goodman’s character look right at the camera and say “goodnight” directly to the audience while smiling with tears in his eyes.

Executive producer Bruce Rasmussen later told The Post that the tearful “goodbyes” weren’t scripted, and showrunner Bruce Helford noted that the touching final scene was Goodman’s idea.

“He had pitched that,” Helford said. “It was his idea.”

Following the series finale of “The Conners” in April and the end of “The Righteous Gemstones” in May, Goodman has been working on a new movie, titled “The Revenant,” with Tom Cruise.

But Goodman was sidelined from the movie for two months back in March after he fractured his hip following a shocking on-set injury.

“It was a real accident,” he explained to THR on Friday. “I was wearing stocking feet, like I had been for the last week and a half. I was passing Tom, and my legs just went on the floor, and I came up parallel to the ground and landed on my hip.”

“I tried to get back up, and when I couldn’t do that, I started fearing the worst,” Goodman added. “I didn’t know I had fractured it until we got X-rays.”

Luckily, the “Big Lebowski” star has almost completely recovered from the startling on-set accident in London earlier this year.

“So far, so good,” he said. “Unfortunately, I was down for about a month there where I couldn’t do anything, and it was driving me nuts.”
