Joel Edgerton has faced an unexpected challenge in his latest project 'Dark Matter'. This Australian actor specifically expressed discomfort about seeing his doubles in this film, referring to his general reluctance to watch himself in his roles.
Concern About Watching Himself
In an interview, Joel Edgerton stated that he generally does not enjoy watching himself in films and series. He feels that this experience is unpleasant for him, and for this reason, he has become quite anxious about seeing his doubles in 'Dark Matter'. The film explores stories related to science and imagination, which is why many different versions of Edgerton himself are depicted in it.
Experience Working with Doubles
Edgerton shares his feelings on this matter: "Seeing so many different versions of myself was really strange and frightening. Every time I saw my doubles, I felt like I was lost in one of those versions." This feeling has particularly struck him in 'Dark Matter' due to the high number of his doubles.
Despite these concerns, Edgerton is excited about his performance in 'Dark Matter' and hopes that this experience can help improve his career portfolio. As a talented actor, he is always looking for new challenges, and this project is one of those challenges.
Ultimately, Joel Edgerton, as an experienced and hardworking actor, although dissatisfied with watching himself, seems to be striving to cope with these challenges and appear more successful in the acting field than before.
