" I hyperventilate the first few times . "
A lot has to be done to prepare for a role, and some actors go to extreme lengths to get into character. However, all that preparation doesn’t always necessarily pay off.
So, here are five actors who’s extreme preparation paid off, and six others where the work wasn’t quite worth it:
1.Daniel Day-Lewis–Gangs ofNew York
2.Leonardo Di Caprio –The Revenant
3.Jamie Foxx–Ray
4.Halle Berry –Jungle Fever
5.Adrien Brody –The Pianist
On the other side of the coin, there are times that over-preparing doesn’t necessarily reap the rewards it seems it might. Here are six examples of it not quite being worth it:
6.Jared Leto –Suicide Squad
7.Matt Damon –Courage Under Fire
8.Ian McKellen –The Keep
9.Ryan Gosling –Lovely Bones
10.Harris Dickinson –Triangle of Sadness
11.Channing Tatum –Hail, Caesar!
