"I start to mention the most famous story about Ben Foster, and Ben Foster starts to roll his eyes. It's an anecdote that crops up in nearly every interview with the American actor, one that dates back to the 2013 war drama Lone Survivor. On set one day, in a quest for earthy verisimilitude, Foster began eating handfuls of dirt. It wasn't handfuls, he later claimed, explaining that he had simply balked at the idea of navy seals displaying pearly-white Hollywood teeth."
The Independent seeks donations to finance reporters on the ground and to keep reporting free of paywalls, funding investigative work on topics such as reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech.
