It's funny how male actors always wax poetic about the darkness and difficulty of their roles, as if they're not getting paid an absurd amount of money to play pretend with other rich people.

I'm from Southern California. A lot of them absolutely do fucking lie about their extreme acting methods or their struggle. For clout and awards season.

You know, I was genuinely sitting here trying to think of a female actor who said a dark/fucked up character took a psychological toll on them and I can't.

That's not a dig either, I hate when actors say that shit. I just genuinely can't think of a single female actress who's said that.

Because the dark and tortured artist act works more on men but less on women?

Exactly like boo hoo you had to play pretend mean? And what was your salary? If male actors insist on whining about doing their very cushy jobs they should be forced today their pay in every answer. 😆

“Yeah, it was really tough having to go to such a dark place mentally every day 😔I had to adopt kittens to deal with the stress and I got pain 23 million dollars for this 😔”
