"[Josh is] an incredibly hard worker, and his love language is service. But behind that, it's not a selfless service. He wants access, and there's something in him that feels he'll never be somebody that can become a member [of the club]."
"It's a peek behind the curtain of what it costs to do this stuff. It's very intimate and it's revealing, but hopefully useful for people that are interested in dedicating their life to being artists."
Oscar Isaac plays Josh in the second season of Netflix's Beef, a character who is charming yet morally conflicted. After filming Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Isaac found himself losing his voice and feeling constricted, prompting him to infuse elements of Victor Frankenstein into Josh. Isaac describes Josh as a hard worker whose love language is service, but his motivations are self-serving. The documentary King Hamlet, directed by his wife, offers insight into Isaac's life during a challenging period, showcasing the sacrifices involved in pursuing an artistic career.
