It's not normal.

It's not a normal thing to see,

but it's a normal thing to do,

because I know we all do it at home.

Every single one of us, we all dance around naked.

[upbeat instrumental music]

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] The Banshees of Inisherin.

[cart rumbling]

What happened to you?

My daddy discovered the poaching situation.

Oh Jesus, Dominic, you poor thing, you.

What the hell was he hitting you with?

The kettle was the final thing.

I wouldn't have minded, but for the spout.

Yeah, it's Martin McDonagh's first movie

in Ireland, isn't it?

And it's a piece of history there, I think.

Just having that, just whole Irish crew, cast,

Irish crews are amazing.

They just go, Yeah, that's that.

Yep, yep, we got it, yeah.

And it's just, like, short and sweet.

Dominic reminded me of, there was a character

in Martin McDonagh's play called Bartley,

The Cripple of Inishmaan.

It kind of reminded me of he's Arnie

in What's Eating Gilbert Grape.

So there's a bit of, there's a bit of that going on as well.

Like he's, there's a lot,

a lot of characters I could pull from.

Well, maybe this whole thing has just been

about getting you to try a new tack.

Start standing up for yourself a bit.

Do you think?

Yeah.

And be less about, you know, whiny little dull-arse.

You know, there's no really takes

that we do the same thing and that, again,

is just down to being comfy with one another.

And so that has its advantages.

And then it has its disadvantages when you live with 'em,

and, like, you get too comfy with 'em.

It's like that thing of lift up the toilet seat, you know,

that, them kind of little things.

Yeah, like, You left the fridge door open.

I was like, It's not me.

He was like, You're the only one here.

Yeah, no, I didn't think so.

Just thought I'd ask in the off chance, you know,

like faint heart and that.

Well, there goes that dream.

There it goes, that dream.

Oh man.

It's funny because that take,

I was, like, rushing off to catch a plane.

I was like, Oh, have we got it?

I was like, let me, you know, let me just, you know,

I was like trying to go and get an answer.

Gimme the answer.

Okay, well, anyways.

And that was the last take of the movie as well for me.

Well it's a, it's a credit to Martin McDonagh.

He's one of the best writers out there.

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] The Killing of a Sacred Deer.

[footsteps]

Hi.

Hi.

[bag thudding]

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Aye, did you eat?

I just had some apple pie.

Do you mind if I go grab something to eat before we go?

I'm starving.

Martin, what a name.

Martin.

He's such a weird little freak kid.

That's a freakiest character I think I've played.

You know, 'cause I don't know if he had, like, a superpower

or some stuff like that,

which I, I never found out.

But I remember Colin saying,

You're gonna probably play the Joker one day

after this character.

I remember him saying that to me in the hotel.

He's like, This is one of the most evilest villains.

You'll play the Joker one day after this.

I think she, I think she likes you.

I mean, she's attracted to you,

but she says, That's not true.

But it is, I'm sure.

And to be honest, I think you're perfect for each other.

You'd make a great couple.

He doesn't really ask to keep it monotone

or anything like that,

but I remember he did say, Stop acting.

I was like, Alright, I get it.

I'll get it now.

Because Yorgos wants a certain way

he wants his dialogue delivered

and I can't really animate it

or put any color on it really.

You kind of have to strip it all back.

But he has his way, he has his method and it works.

And I'm always up for going along with trying new stuff.

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] Saltburn.

Actually, like I said, actually I'm just -

And here he is now.

We were just talking about you.

Don't be silly.

Farleigh, you just make up the most awful things.

Of course we weren't.

Hello Oliver darling.

That I had a lot of fun with.

Because we wanted to trick the audience into thinking

he's sweet and innocent and what's his motive and,

and then whomp, it just turns.

Emerald, I mean, she's an amazing person first of all.

Always checking on everyone, making sure our set is good

and the energy is good.

So you have kind of a safeness to roam about

as the character.

Oh, she loves Oliver.

She's like, I love 'im.

[laughing]

I had five notebooks for that.

Five Moleskine notebooks instead of, like, one or two.

Each notebook would represent personalities, you know,

different acceleration, different motives, different tone.

How is he different from here to Oliver tree?

Just reminding you, you know.

Not too, too much either,

you don't want a whole Bible of it.

'Cause you go in and you're just stiff then, I think.

You know, you just have to have a looseness about it

and just, alright, I know where to go.

Just taking these back to the library.

Take my bike.

No, no, no, I couldn't.

I mean, I mean it looks like rain.

I wouldn't, I wouldn't want to.

Honestly, it's no big deal.

I mean, I'll just get it from you later.

You're at my college, so...

Am I?

Yep.

With Jacob, I was just, you know, getting used to,

used to them and just hanging out with them.

But they were staying elsewhere, wile I was staying here.

Now I've got my baby here, my baby boy.

I was making hot milk and changing nappies

and they were at this hotel

and they were just hanging out a lot,

so I kind of felt left out.

So I was like, I'm gonna get yous.

You know. [laughing]

In the movie, obviously, I'm gonna get yous.

[water gurgling]

[water gurgling]

[water gurgling]

Bathtub scene is he's submitting to this obsession

and trying to figure out what it is he's chasing

and, you know, almost like a sacrifice

in how he lowers himself into the bath,

you know, physically.

And then when he gets down there,

he's just confused and helpless

and sick to, you know, to do that.

Ugh.

But you can't judge that as you're playing him.

I can judge it as a spectator,

but when I'm playing him, I've gotta see justice to it

and see that it's the right thing to do.

[choir singing mournfully]

The grave scene, the same thing.

I just wanted to explore and grow with the character

and figure him out and see.

When, you know, I asked for a closed set,

I said, I wanna try something.

I just wanted to see what I'd do as Oliver

when action happens and where I went.

And to me, he just went to a place of, you know,

being totally heartbroken and lost and confused.

That's where the books helped me out,

because it remind me of where I'm at

and how to feel basically, what mood to be in.

That was totally improv that, it was crazy.

I just said, Play the music, I'll do it.

Nah, that was choreographed by Polly Bennett.

She's brilliant.

You know, you gotta hit some steps

and I think it was gorgeous to look at a figure

like that Roman, you know, that manner, you know,

dripping in money and paintings from the 1700's

and, you know, to move so freely.

It's not normal.

It's not a normal thing to see,

but it's a normal thing to do

because I know we all do it at home.

Every single one of us, we all dance around naked.

So it's probably the most relatable scene in the movie

to everyone watching.

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] Eternals.

When I left, I thought about taking over the minds

of every human on this planet.

Violence, fear, greed, all gone.

He mind controls everything.

So I'd love to see him, it'd be just a movie

of him playing about mind controlling everyone.

No really motive, just mind controlling for the sake of it.

Prep for that is you do a superhero movie,

so you gotta humanize them.

Don't play the superhero.

Try and bring the human side of them out.

Chloe just kind of let me be me,

and wanted me to, kind of, be still.

And Chloe kept referencing Hayden Christensen,

his character in Star Wars to be a bit more,

she just wanted me to be a bit more still, very chin high.

And that was the only really prep I'd kind of done,

was to learn to walk a bit slower.

And I tried to mind control people

and people were like, What are you doing?

Why are you staring at me?

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] The Green Knight.

[horse hooves clopping]

Who are you?

Just a traveler friend.

You look like a knight.

Just passing through.

Ah, I take it you want some of the share, so, huh?

Of what?

All of this.

[crows cawing]

Do you know what the Scavenger reminds me of?

Sort of like the,

the kind of a, an Artful Dodger kind of character.

You know, he's got a trick up his sleeve,

or, you know, he's a tag along.

That long shot was my boots kept coming off

'cause it was in the mud, you know,

we had to get it where I walked through

and it was one shot, obviously, as well, which is really,

you had to kind of finish all your dialogue,

you know, up until a certain point.

But my shoes kept coming off

so I'd end up at the end of the take with no shoes on.

'T weren't enough, just 't weren't enough.

[feet scuffling]

[metal clanging]

'T weren't enough.

Anything I'd done kind of freaked Dev out.

Anything.

So I could say anything, or do anything, you know,

having the bucked teeth as well and,

yeah, I was just, it added a lot to the character.

And, just I could play around

being in my own accent as well.

You kind of have a bit more freedom to improv

and the coin was really useful.

Added another layer to him, that trickery thing to him.

And then the ax was just,

I mean that's what the whole movie is about, isn't it?

But yeah, you can really play around with props.

I love getting a prop.

It's almost a little character of itself, isn't it?

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] Dunkirk.

Dunkirk, that was a massive moment.

I mean, just the sets and what Chris Nolan does on,

you know, on the water.

And he's got real fecking planes coming towards you

that take a half an hour to reset.

You don't really need to act.

I remember the plane coming towards me,

and so just zoned in on the plane,

I was like, Oh my God.

And he was like, Tell them to get lower.

And the plane was getting lower then towards our boat.

I remember then looking at 'em going, Oh fuck, man.

And then he was rolling.

He's like, We're rolling.

I was like, Oh shit.

It's, like, half an hour to reset.

Turn it around!

Turn it -

[footsteps thudding]

[men scuffling]

Hey, stop.

Calm it down, mate.

[metal crashing]

[body thudding]

Turn it around.

Calm it down, mate.

[metal clattering]

The fight with me and my fellow Irishman, Cillian Murphy.

Yeah, you wouldn't do that in real life, but anyways.

No, I'm messing.

Nah, that was quite tricky, I mean.

Because when I fell back,

I had to kind of duck my head as well,

so I didn't really fecking hit my head and go blind.

Poor George, killing the sweater.

That little tea cosy sweater.

Do you remember that?

That was a statement, that.

I wanted more with Cillian, though.

I wanted to do more.

Me, him, and Chris, we just, 'cause Chris has, you know,

some Irish relatives in that movie,

and we're just chatting about Ireland and stuff like that,

and where's the best Guinness in Dublin, and.

[upbeat instrumental music]

[GQ] The Batman.

Have you read this file?

[papers rustling]

[file slamming]

You two have so much in common,

masked avengers, ha.

Originally there was no audition.

I just made myself an audition tape

'cause I seen an article saying that they wanted

The Riddler and the new Batman.

I was like, Oh yeah, I'd love to play that.

I just made a tape.

I said, Feck, I'm a buy a cane and a hat.

Just find myself a corridor and film myself walking down it.

I had some, like, little bit of a swag to it

and a bit of music and let's see,

will that get me an audition?

So I'd done that, yeah.

And they said, No, but but do you wanna play The Joker?

I was like, Yep.

I think you don't really care about his motives,

whether he loves or hates you.

That took six hours to get into that.

And I was like, Oh, man.

I couldn't sit still for six hours.

I really couldn't.

And then I remember, we're on five hours

and then someone came in and went,

We're shutting production down, there's COVID.

I was like, I was like, Huh, really?

What? What happened?

There was, like, this steel thing.

I'm like.

God, that was like slicing in.

I was like, I'm really gonna be left with a scar here.

So I was like that.

And Rob was in the Batsuit and I'm like, Ha ha.

And he's like, Ha, ha, ha.

I'm like, No, ha, ha, ha, you.

We couldn't move.

We literally couldn't get up and move.

I was looking at pictures of asylums

and I remember seeing this thing on the,

in this asylum picture and I always saved it on my phone,

and around The Batman, like, the joke and it said

spray paint of an old asylum room,

and it said, Hell was more fun.

I was like, Whoa.

Like, that is crazy.
