Brian Cox Blasts Hollywood Stars, Method Acting

0:00Brian Cox, from Succession, just unloaded on a bunch of Hollywood stars in a fresh interview, starting with Margot Robbie and Jacob Ellority in there. Wuthering Heights, Flick. At 35 and 28, they're playing team characters Katherine and Heathcliff from Emily Brontie's novel, but Cox says they don't match the book's physical descriptions, echoing fan backlash since Robbie's also producing. He took it further by mimicking Robbie's Australian accent in the role, turning their dramatic lines into something straight out of down under. Meanwhile, Cox slammed Quentin Tarantino's directing as all-flash with no real death, and he didn't hold back on Donald Trump or Kevin Spacey either. Cox has a rep for these blunt takes. Last year he called Joaquin Phoenix's Napoleon, acting truly awful, and he's always ripped into method acting as, annoying, especially from his Succession co-star, Jeremy Strong. His team cleared up old jabs at Johnny Depp and Edward Norton too. Those were from his 2022 autobiography.

1:02Norton got labeled a real pain from their work together on the 2002 film, 25th Hour. Turning nearly 80 this year, Cox shrugs off warnings from his wife to watch his mouth, saying he's overplaying it safe and plans to keep calling. It like he sees it. Hollywood could use more of their raw honesty. That wraps Durham News Today, brought to you with AI.
