Jared Leto Made Himself Go Blind For Blade Runner 2049/
etween Jared Leto's work on films like Dallas Buyers Club and Suicide Squad, the Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman and Oscar-winner has continuously gone to borderline insane lengths to make his characters come to life. With Blade Runner 2049 poised to debut in theaters next month, it looks like he has done it again, as director Denis Villeneuve recently revealed that Leto intentionally blinded himself with cloudy contact lenses to sell his character, Niander Wallace, and used an assistant to physically navigate the set. Villeneuve said:
He could not see at all. He was walking with an assistant, very slowly. it was like seeing Jesus walking into a temple. Everybody became super silent, and there was a kind of sacred moment. Everyone was in awe. It was so beautiful and powerful -- I was moved to tears.

>wore blurry contacts on set so he couldn't see
THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN
SOMEBODY STOP HIM
You'd think after Suicide Squad, he'd learn that this shit doesn't work.
Charlie Cox just stares forward in Daredevil and it works perfectly.

There's nothing to learn. It's done for publicity. "Method acting" is just a way for actors to pretend their craft is serious work.

Blind people don't close their eyes.
That's what sunglasses are for.

I just assumed this was copypasta, but the quote is real. Villeneuve is an absolute nancy

Well, Leto has been called Jesus before.
And that was before being blind.
>>87483306
I just want to kick his fucking teeth in.
>>87483436
holy fuck
>>87483306
oh god, it sounds like it's gonna be shit
when will the "method acting" meme come to an end?
>>87483306
it's going to be shit, in large part because of him. not his fault, it's the fault of the person who cast him. probably a board of directors following what an AI algorithm tells them to do
>>87483306
Blade Runner 2049......It is going to be fucking shit.
>>87483306
The headline makes it sound like he poured acid in his eyes or something.
>contact lenses
