Brian Cox's Controversial Comments on Method Acting and Succession Co-Stars

Brian Cox, star of HBO's Succession, has once again expressed his dislike for Method acting, a performance style favored by his co-star Jeremy Strong. Cox believes it's a cultural clash and prefers actors to "just do the job" without identifying too much with their characters. He also cites Daniel Day-Lewis, a patron saint of Method, as an example, saying his devotion to the style led to his early retirement. Cox also comments on the differences between American and British showrunners and their approach to ending a series.
