Top 10 Times Actors Went Embarassingly Method For Terrible Movies
When dedication meets disaster! Join us as we count down the actors who went to extreme lengths for roles that definitely weren’t worth it. From acid trips to fruitarian diets, these performers sacrificed their sanity, health, and dignity for films that critics and audiences universally panned. Talk about suffering for your art! Our countdown includes Jared Leto’s crutch-dependent delays on “Morbius,” Ashton Kutcher’s hospitalization-inducing diet for “Jobs,” Idris Elba attending cat school for the CGI nightmare “Cats,” Tom Hardy’s Bugs Bunny-inspired Al Capone, and Shia LaBeouf’s ill-advised acid trip for “Charlie Countryman.” Which method acting disaster do you think was the biggest waste of effort? Let us know in the comments below!

I felt like these so called method actors are just a bunch of manchild who justify themselves for being a scum/douchebag in the name of art.

How's that quote go? "Most people only use method when they want an excuse to be an @$$hole."

You can’t convince me Jared Leto using the restroom using his character’s crutches and delaying production isn’t hilarious…

The cast of Cats was absolutely packed with big name stars so the fact that it turned out so bad is almost impressive 😂

I'll never have the courage to watch Cats, that looks so bad that I feel my brain would just give up on me and stop working

It’s kinda sad that Jared Lego’s best method acting result was in Blade Runner 2045 in a short role. I actually wanted to see more of it.
He put on contacts to be blind (like the character) and adapted to it.

Waterworld was great! It was campy fun as a kid and the ending being on MT Everest was pretty cool.

I remember being so excited for Morbius when it was first announced but no casting had yet been made. And then learned Jared Leto was being cast as the main role and completely lost all interest. I knew it was going to be bad 😂

What about Shia LaBeouf who in fury had one of his teeth removed and refused to bathe. His costars said he stunk when they were in the tank together.

To this day I keep wondering why studios keep hiring Jared Leto. He's had 2 good performances his entire career, and has been the drizzling shits the last 20 years.

I know Jared Leto would be in this list. But I didn't expect he'll be number 1.

Jared Leto is also going to ruin the new Tron movie

I can’t help giggling when I hear about Jared Leto taking so long to move around – 5:04 and up to 45 minutes to take a bathroom break due to method-acting as Dr Morbious that they had to get him to use a wheel-chair because it was costing so much in production time!!! 😂

It's a small part but Leto's method acting Blade Runner 2049 worked very well.
