Daniel Day-Lewis ‘cross’ method acting is associated with ‘behaving like a lunatic’ Story by Greg Evans • 1d • 3 min read Current Time 0:05 / Duration 1:10 The Independent A look at Daniel Day-Lewis's range in his films 0 View on Watch View on Watch Oscar-winning star Daniel Day-Lewis has bemoaned people using method acting to imply that someone is behaving like a “lunatic”. The 68-year-old actor, who has been known to fully immerse himself in a role, believes the term has become associated with actors who behave badly on set.

"Everyone tends to focus on the less important details of the work, and those details always seem to involve some sort of self-flagellation or an experience that imposes upon oneself a severe discomfort or mental instability,” continued Day-Lewis. “But of course, in the life of an actor, it has to principally be about the internal work."

He looks in the mirror, puts his hand on my shoulder, and he goes, ‘From now on, I call you Shang and you call me Bill [their respective characters].’ And I just went, ‘OK, Bill,’ and that was it. We were locked in.” Anemone, directed by the actor’s son Ronan, is the first film Day-Lewis has made since 2017’s Phantom Thread, which he initially stated would be his final film. Speaking ahead of the world premiere of Anemone at the New York Film Festival, Day-Lewis said he regretted how definitive his retirement statement sounded.

I never intended to retire, really. I just stopped doing that particular type of work so I could do some other work.” Shop dvd viking saison 6 - Amazon.ca Official Site - Low Priced dvd viking saison 6 Ad Shop dvd viking saison 6 - Amazon.ca Official Site - Low Priced dvd viking saison 6 amazon.ca call to action icon more “Apparently, I've been accused of retiring twice now,” he continued. “I never meant to retire from anything! I just wanted to work on something else for a while.” He stars in Anemone as Ray, an estranged hermit, whose brother Jem (Sean Bean) leaves his suburban home and ventures out into the woods to reconnect with him. There is currently no release date but the film will screen as part of the BFI London Film Festival (LFF).
