sent his “Suicide Squad” costar a rat to get into character as the Joker. Speaking on the WTF with Marc Maron podcast, Andrew Garfield said that people have the wrong idea about what “the method” actually is. “There’s been a lot of misconceptions around what method acting is, I think,” Garfield told Maron. “It’s not about being an a–hole to everyone on set.
It’s actually just about living truthfully under imagined circumstances, and being really nice to the crew simultaneously, and being a normal human being, and being able to drop it when you need to, and staying in it when you want to stay in it.”Method acting came out of the Actors’ Studio in the 1950s, with stars like Marlon Brando burning up stages and screens with the technique.
Decades later, several actors still practice it, most notably Daniel Day-Lewis, who learned how to track and skin animals to prepare for “The Last of the Mohicans,” while, more recently, Lady Gaga said she had psychological issues after staying in character for her role as a murderous Italian wife for the entire shoot of “House of Gucci.” Such well-publicized examples aren’t what the one-time Spider-Man thinks is real method acting. “I’m kind of bothered by this idea that ‘method acting’s f—ing pipes bulls—.’ No, I don’t think you know what method acting is if you’re calling it bullshit.
