“Succession’s” deeply tragic Kendall Roy is not news — and it’s something co-star Brian Cox, who plays the gruff and withholding patriarch Logan Roy, finds “f—ing annoying.”The Emmy-winning Scottish actor has previously expressed his indifference to Strong’s immersive technique, having called the method a uniquely “American disease” in the much-discussed 2021 New Yorker profile of the star. Now, in a cover story with Town & Country, the veteran actor — who is classically trained — doubled down on his sentiments.“He’s a very good actor,” Cox told the magazine. “And the rest of the ensemble is all OK with this.
But knowing a character and what the character does is only part of the skill set.” When asked if he finds Strong’s approach annoying, Cox responded, “Oh, it’s f–ing annoying. Don’t get me going on it.” Cox continued, bringing up an example of how he successfully taught a toddler the seminal “To be or not to be” soliloquy in “Hamlet,” saying that the approach was just exemplary of simple instruction: “There is something in the little boy that is able to convey the character. It’s just there and is accessible.
It’s not a big f—ing religious experience.”For example, Cox said he was taken aback when Strong didn’t break character after filming a particularly heavy scene in the final episode of the HBO show’s third season, where Kendall confesses to accidentally killing the caterer from Shiv’s (Sarah Snook) wedding: “He’s still that guy, because he feels if he went somewhere else he’d lose it. But he won’t! Strong is talented. He’s f–ing gifted.

Tim Gray Senior Vice President Oscar voters rewarded “All Quiet on the Western Front” with nine nominations, including best picture and international film. But aside from the great work seen onscreen, the film is notable for what it doesn’t do. There are no heroic acts, no sense of adventure, no cheering when the enemy dies. It’s a true anti-war film. Producer Malte Grunert says: “There are a lot of things that do not follow the normal dramatic structure that you would expect in a war movie.” He and director Edward Berger discussed the depiction of violence, since Erich Maria Remarque’s 1927 novel about World War I vividly describes atrocities. “We wanted to keep it violent because a war film has to be. It’s about young boys, just out of school, going to the Western Front and being thrown into violence and pain,” says Grunert. “But we never wanted it to be exploitative. The violence was always to have a purpose, to show the horror through the eyes of our protagonists.”
