Actor Jeremy Strong<\/p>\n
The 47-year-old entertainer insists he will remain fully committed to his roles, even if his intense approach changes the atmosphere on set.<\/p>\n
On the latest episode of the New Yorker Radio Hour podcast, Jeremy said: “It is never my intention to interfere with anyone else’s experience or anyone else’s way of working. First, do no harm, right? But commit to f****** what you’re doing, and utterly.”<\/p>\n
The Social Reckoning star added: “I’m just there to commit utterly to serving the material.<\/p>\n
\t\t\t<\/p>\n
“If some people feel that I’m taking it too seriously, or it changes the molecules in the room in a way that makes something uncomfortable, I guess that’s something that I don’t feel that I need to apologise for.<\/p>\n
\n“I believe, and I think the directors that I work with all believe, that it’s in service of the material, and I personally think that a lot of the reactions to it are of a personal nature.”<\/p>\n
\nBrian Cox, 80, previously criticised his Succession co-star Jeremy’s approach to method acting.<\/p>\n
\nJeremy played tortured Kendall Roy, the son of Brian’s foul-mouthed media mogul dad Logan Roy, in the HBO black comedy-drama series.<\/p>\n
\nHe fully immersed himself in the character by isolating himself from the rest of the cast to portray the alienation Kendall feels from his family.<\/p>\n
\nIn a February 2023 interview with Town and Country magazine, Brian said acting does not have to be a \u201cbig f****** religious experience\u201d and described Jeremy as “gifted”, while suggesting that the actor should relax and forget about his method acting.<\/p>\n
\nAsked about getting into character, Brian said: “It\u2019s just there and is accessible, it\u2019s not a big f****** religious experience.”<\/p>\n
\nDiscussing what it was like to work with Jeremy on Succession, Brian admitted: “Oh, it\u2019s f****** annoying, don\u2019t get me going on it\u2026 he\u2019s f****** gifted, when you\u2019ve got the gift, celebrate the gift. Go back to your trailer and have a hit of marijuana, you know?”<\/p>\n
\nJeremy later responded to Brian’s comments, saying the straight-talker has earned the right to say “whatever the f*** he wants” about his method acting.<\/p>\n
\nJeremy told British GQ: “Everyone\u2019s entitled to have their feelings. I also think Brian Cox, for example, he\u2019s earned the right to say whatever the f*** he wants. <\/p>\n
\n“There was no need to address that or do damage control\u2026 I feel a lot of love for my siblings and my father on the show. <\/p>\n
\n“And it\u2019s like a family in the sense that, and I\u2019m sure they would say this, too, you don\u2019t always like the people that you love. I do always respect them.”<\/p>\n
