"Brian is a very fine actor who's done extraordinary work. As a result, he's been given a soapbox ... which he shows no sign of climbing down from. Any time he wants to talk about it, I'm easy to find."
"To me, Daniel Day-Lewis got worn out at 55 and decided to retire because [he] couldn't go on doing that every day. It's too consuming, and I do worry about it. But the result - what everyone says about Jeremy - the result is always extraordinary and excellent."
""fucking annoying""
A dispute over Method acting has crystallized in the United Kingdom, with Brian Cox publicly criticizing Method practitioners such as Jeremy Strong and drawing comparisons to Daniel Day-Lewis. Cox described aspects of the Method as exhausting for colleagues and said the approach can be consuming, while also acknowledging outstanding results. Daniel Day-Lewis, currently promoting his son's film, pushed back against Cox's repeated commentary, called Cox a very fine actor, and urged him to step down from his public soapbox. The Method, rooted in Stanislavski and Lee Strasberg, centers on using real emotion and sustained immersion in character.
