Brian Cox Is Sorry For Going So Hard On Johnny Depp
Last year, Brian Cox released his memoir Putting the Rabbit in the Hat and subsequently proved he could moonlight as a literacy tutor because Brian read everyone. Brian took swings at Steven Seagal (“ludicrous“), Quentin Tarantino (“meretricious“), Edward Norton (“A bit of a pain in the arse“), and Jonathan Pryce (“An interesting fish“), among many others. But he saved most of his matches and lighter fluid to roast up Johnny Depp. Brian, who said he passed up the chance to work with Johnny on the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, described Johnny as being “so overblown” and “so overrated.” Well, Brian has thought about his thoughts, and Brian thinks he might have been just a little too harsh on Jack Sparrow in his book.
Brian Cox Says His Jaw Dropped Over Brad Pitt’s Beauty On The Set Of “Troy”
Brian Cox recently let it be known that, despite being someone who identifies as straight, the image of Brad Pitt walking onto the set of the 2004 film Troy pretty much got Brian’s mouth damper than the lost city of Atlantis. Brian Cox may be known as a full-time serious actor with a part-time job as an enjoyable hater, but he is also able to give credit where credit is due, and in this case, he’s opening up a whole Visa Platinum card account’s worth of extended credit for early 2000s Brad Pitt. Some might think that peak-hot Brad Pitt is mid-90s Legends of the Fall Brad Pitt. But for Brian Cox, he was absolutely blown away at seeing Brad Pitt as Achilles for Troy.
Brian Cox Has Softened His Criticism Of Johnny Depp After Hearing From Johnny’s Many, Many Fans
I guess you can talk all the shit you want about Steven Seagal and get away with it because, even though he’s a martial arts master, he’s hardly going to risk having to pay his back taxes just so he can come back to the USA and kick your ass. But salty dog Brian Cox found out the hard way that not everyone he came for in his memoir Putting The Rabbit in The Hat was going to be an easy target. In his book, Brian called Johnny Depp “so overblown” and “so overrated,” and according to Yahoo! News, that didn’t sit well with Johnny’s “voracious” (Brian’s word) fans. And they let him know, loudly enough that he had to clarify that he meant no “disrespect.” Brian recently softened his stance to say Johnny’s only “sometimes overblown,” but couldn’t help throwing a little shade in there too adding “I think it’s great that he’s got that loyalty.” Loyal fans, the beautiful gowns of actors! How was he to know Johnny’s got a posse who works 24/7 whereas Seagal’s fan club happens to be busy at the moment trying to invade Ukraine.
Here Are The Nominees For The (Untelevised) 2022 Golden Globes
Just because you’re broke and ugly, that doesn’t mean you have cornered the market on suffering. If you prick a celebrity, do they not bleed? Well they do — profusely, dramatically and off-key. Sure, the last couple of years may have been hard on everyone, but it’s been particularly hard on actors who’ve had their very livelihoods upturned by the ravages the coronavirus has taken on the global box office as well having to have witnessed the downfall of one of their most beloved institutions of affirmation, The Golden Globes. But even though NBC decided not to air the 2022 ceremony due to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s “lack of diversity and shoddy ethical practices,” Variety reports that the “beleaguered and scandal-plagued” HFPA has gone ahead and enlisted Snoop Dogg to read aloud their nominees, I guess because he was the only Black celebrity they could get on such short notice. Because as we know, Scarlett Johansson’s sick of being their token and wants nothing more to do with them.
Aaron Sorkin And Anne Hathaway Join Jessica Chastain In Defending Jeremy Strong From His New Yorker Profile
Well, Aaron Sorkin and Anne Hathaway have now joined Jessica Chastain in Hollywood’s newest IT charitable cause. You hear that, Leonardo DiCaprio?! Scream at your pilot to divert your private jet from whatever environmental conference you’re headed to and fly to NYC for the inevitable JUSTICE4STRONG charity gala. Earlier this week, The New Yorker released a profile on Jeremy Strong, who plays Kendall Roy on Succession, and a lot of it covers his serious acting process. Jeremy’s process isn’t Jared Leto levels of method creepiness, but he refuses to rehearse and he doesn’t completely turn his character off when a scene ends. People who have worked with Jeremy were interviewed including Jeremy’s current TV daddy, Brian Cox, who said that he worries about what Jeremy does to himself to prepare for a scene. Brian repeated that on Wednesday’s episode of The Late Show with Seth Meyers by saying that he’s afraid Jeremy’s intense process will lead to early burnout.
The New Yorker piece wasn’t mean, but still, Jeremy’s friend Jessica Chastain put her on Captain Save-A-Method-Ho cap and called out the profile as “one-sided.” And now Aaron Sorkin and Anne Hathaway have both come to the defense of poor, persecuted Jeremy Strong. You know, because they hate that profile so much that they’re going to bring more attention to it so more people can read it!
Jeremy Strong’s Method Acting Worries And Vexes Some Of His “Succession” Castmates
Serious method ACTOR Jeremy Strong has emulated and idolized Daniel Day-Lewis ever since he was a teenager and had a poster of him in My Left Foot on his bedroom wall. And whereas DDL won an Oscar for his performance in that film, it’s unlikely he can brag about being to, to this day, masturbate without using his hands. But I bet Jeremy can, given the seriousness with which he takes his craft! And based on the comments from some of his Succession castmates that accompany a new profile of him in The New Yorker, he’s really fucking annoying with that shit. Like DDL, who Jeremy went on to work for as an assistant, is probably so embarrassed for him right now he’s asking his agent to get him a role as a blind hermit or something so he can pretend not to see him next time they run into each other.
