Daniel Day-Lewis Addresses Brian Cox's Criticism of Method Acting
Daniel Day-Lewis has denied Brian Cox's claim that Jeremy Strong is an "annoying" Method actor influenced by Day-Lewis himself. In a recent interview with the U.K.’s Big Issue, Day-Lewis explained that he was unwillingly drawn into the ongoing debate surrounding Method acting because of Cox.
Brian Cox's Critique of Method Acting
Brian Cox, known for his role in Succession, has openly criticized Method acting in several interviews. He frequently points to his co-star Jeremy Strong as an example of why he finds the technique frustrating. Cox also suggested that Day-Lewis stopped acting at age 55 due to burnout caused by the demands of Method acting, stating that Day-Lewis “couldn’t go on doing that every day.”
“Jeremy was Day-Lewis’ assistant. So he’s learned all that stuff from Dan.” — Brian Cox, on Jeremy Strong's Method acting
Day-Lewis Responds to the Claims
Day-Lewis described Cox as a talented actor who now has a platform to voice his opinions, which he is unlikely to relinquish:
“Brian is a very fine actor who’s done extraordinary work. As a result, he’s been given a soapbox… which he shows no sign of climbing down from. Any time he wants to talk about it, I’m easy to find.” — Daniel Day-Lewis, Big Issue
Regarding the suggestion that he influenced Jeremy Strong’s approach, Day-Lewis firmly rejected it:
“If I thought during our work together I’d interfered with his working process, I’d be appalled. But I don’t think it was like that. So I don’t know where the fuck that came from.” — Daniel Day-Lewis
Summary
Daniel Day-Lewis refutes Brian Cox’s claims about his influence on Jeremy Strong and expresses frustration at being pulled into the Method acting debate unwillingly.
