Mads Mikkelsen on method acting: “It’s bullshit. What if it’s a shit film - what do you think you achieved? Am I impressed that you didn’t drop character? You should have dropped it from the beginning!“

But lol I’m loving all these actors coming out and taking a dump on the pretentiousness of it.

But he tacked it on great by highlighting that no one ever uses it to play nice pleasant people. Which is true, it's usually morally corrupt, mentally insane, difficult characters that you'll hear about method acting.
No one prior to him had highlighted that ever.

His complaints about another actor's way of getting to a character are just as annoying as he claims them to be.
Pure wank. Fuck off.

The man’s a professional actor. I’m sure he’s dealt with method actors at some point in his career and has a first hand account of how insufferable it is to work with someone who refuses to break character, ever.

That man has an opinion about his own approach to what he does. I respect that
I don't respect him shitting on how some other actor gets their work done.
If this was about Method actors who disrespect cast and crew, make a nuisance of themselves *cough* Jared Leto *cough*, I would totally agree with him
But he's being a little bitch about how a colleague works because he doesn't personally work that way. Not breaking character may my the colleague less fun socially to interact with off set. But that's just a minor annoyance that doesn't have to affect him. Y'all wanking like crazy about this when you know damn well you've had work colleagues you didn't have any personal connection with but got your work done together regardless.
