Anya Taylor-Joy Rejects Method Acting: "We Have Things to Care For"

Anya Taylor-Joy, known for intense performances, has never adopted Method acting and has no plans to, citing a crucial difference for women. She believes women's responsibilities prevent them from completely losing their minds on set. Taylor-Joy views acting as a "controlled psychosis," requiring a mental check-in from her support system when necessary.

She emphasized that actors must remain considerate of their colleagues, stating that being an "asshole" hinders collaboration. This perspective echoes Kristen Stewart's earlier comments on acting's inherent vulnerability. Meanwhile, Daniel Day-Lewis has defended Method acting, clarifying it's not a cult or specious science but a method to free oneself and enhance spontaneity during filming.
