Josh Hartnett: ‘It Was Never My Intention to Be a Heartthrob’
Between 1998 and 2002, Hartnett was a staple in films. It’s not often that someone’s first movies are as memorable as “Halloween H20,” “The Faculty” and “The Virgin Suicides.” Follow that up with “Black Hawk Down,” “O” and “Pearl Harbor,” and it’s hard to think of someone who was busier than he was in such a small amount of time.
Josh Hartnett says,“It was never my intention to be a heartthrob.”
"I really wanted to be a serious actor. What I didn’t understand is that I was in an amazing position, working with terrific directors on terrific projects. ...For all intents and purposes, it didn’t matter how… pic.twitter.com/Hf3zZRSdSi

He also never stopped working. Hartnett left Hollywood, moving to England with his wife and four children, and became more specific about what types of roles he chose. But he never quit. He just changed his ways.
“I love my work and I want to put it out there and I want people to enjoy it. But like me, personally, I don’t feel the way that I did when I was younger, because I was undefined. I was 19, 20, 21 years old,” he says. “So, I was still trying to figure out who I was. Something of that magnitude that everybody knew about and sort of thought of me as the character, had an effect on me that I kicked back against.”
He continues, “To me, the world had seen me as a thing that I didn’t feel like inside. I wanted to rectify that.”
