"There Will Be Blood would stand a good chance at being No 1 or 2 if it didn't have a big, giant flaw in it and the flaw is Paul Dano, said Tarantino. Obviously, it's supposed to be a two-hander, but it's also drastically obvious that it's not a two-hander. [Dano] is weak sauce, man. He is the weak sister. Austin Butler would have been wonderful in that role. He's just such a weak, weak, uninteresting guy. The weakest fucking actor in SAG."
"Numerous film industry names have also showed support for Dano, with Ben Stiller posting that Dano is fucking brilliant, while The Batman director Matt Reeves called him an incredible actor, and an incredible person. Dillon Freasier, who played Day-Lewis's adopted son in There Will Be Blood told TMZ the film is perfect, adding: It's a work of art. And it's that way because everyone was perfectly cast."
Quentin Tarantino criticized Paul Dano's performance in There Will Be Blood, calling him 'weak sauce' and saying the film would rank higher without what he called a 'big, giant flaw.' Tarantino suggested Austin Butler would have been a better choice. Daniel Day-Lewis defended Dano on Instagram, calling him one of the best and most talented actors of his generation and noting that he had recommended Dano when the original actor dropped out. Several industry figures voiced support for Dano, including Ben Stiller, Matt Reeves and Dillon Freasier. Some commentators urged audiences to seek out Dano's 2018 film Wildlife.
