I’ve got to clear things up a bit. Young Josh Hartnett did not like how Hollywood studios were creating his persona. He did not want to be a hottie heartthrob or a superhero with a ten year commitment chain tying him down. He wanted to be an actor with versatility. From ages 18-22 his career was being manipulated for him and as a level-headed Midwestern kid, he knew he was going to go nuts if he stayed in town. He wanted to control his own career. Have a life. He was hounded b y paparazzi and fangirls so badly he had to sometimes ride in the trunk of a car to go someplace. He loved doing indie films and when his contract was up that’s where he went. He was not blacklisted. He has a long and richly varied filmography, from horror, comedy, drama, and twisty quirky stuff. An art-house film darling. He’s very picky about what roles he plays. That kind of artistic integrity has impressed directors like Nolan, Ritchie, Logan and the indie greats. He lives on a farm in rural England out of the limelight with his wife and 4 kids. We are massive fans of his in our family, for 3 generations!😊
Thank you for the info! I don't blame him. The further away, the better. I'm going to look up some of these Indie films and see if I can fit a few in my schedule. He was frighteningly good in that "Black Mirror" episode last year.
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS Here are my favs. A really eclectic group of wonderful performances. #1 is an indie he produced and starred in, August (2008). #2 O (2001). #3 Bunraku (2010). #4 The Fear Index series (2023). #5 Lucky Number Slevin (2006). Penny Dreadful series 👌 In no particular order are some other goodies. I Come With the Rain (2010) will blow your mind. Mega violence, stomach turning, double-watch requirement to put the non linear allegory puzzle together. The film is a real mashup from eccentric director Hung, terribly edited, but Hartnett is utterly brilliant. Six Below (2017), produced and stars in tour de force survival role. Also 2017, Oh Lucy! A comic turn with an outstanding Asian cast. (He has a massive Asian fan base.) Bunraku is a must see comic role. He and Harrelson and Ron Perlman and Kevin McKidd have an utter blast in this off the wall gem. “Think Sergio Leone spaghetti Western revenge, Kurosawa samurai quest, Broadway musical choreography in a German Expressionistic setting of origami pop ups and warehouse staging. And it’s a comedy.” Hartnett plays The Drifter, a mysterious avenger who’s trying to quit smoking and is afraid of heights. All these guys give deadpan deliveries of outrageous cliches. The voiceover narrative is hysterical. I believe you can rent it on RUclips. We have the BluRay dvd. Mozart and the Whale (2005), an autistic couple fall in love. He’s amazing in this sweet role. More recent wild and wonderful: Valley of the Gods (2020) with John Malkovich. Two brilliant dramatic performances Inherit the Viper (2019) and Ida Red (2021). Not all the indies hit the mark, but his performances do. You can definitely see why he picked the roles. Nothing mainstream about any of them. 😁 Btw, Danny Walker from Pearl Harbor still lives rent free in my poor old lady brain. 😉 Enjoy!
I work for an Entertainment Agency here in London and it's my job to get singers and actors to their concerts, premieres, TV and radio interviews on time and safely. Josh Hartnett is a really nice guy. He kind of fell out of favour in Hollywood for a while and was hotly tipped to play Superman a while back. It's good to see him back, via Oppenheimer and getting the credit he deserves. What if he's not the killer? 🤔 Maybe he captured what he thinks is the butcher ..... Only to discover later that the person he has locked up isn't the killer either. We shall see! Then we can all laugh together at just how wrong I am 😄🇬🇧
Ooooh, a twist within a twist! I'm backing your theory. I like it! Lol. Ah Hollywood, the fickle beast that it is. Smh. I remember Josh's early days of "The Faculty." A fun sci-fi film of its time. And he did a great job in "30 days of night." I'm definitely a fan and look forward to seeing how this character plays out for him. I have yet to see Oppenheimer. My schedule has been so bogged down lately that its been more challenging than usual to see new stuff coming out. Wait...Superman like Man of Steel with Henry Cavill? Or a different iteration? I love Cavill in the role, but would be interested to see how Josh would do if given the chance. Side note: Your job either sounds fun, stressful or both. Lol. Truly hoping it's the first or third option at least. Love hearing from my peoples in the UK!
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS Thank you! From my conversations with him it was supposed to be another version of Superman although I'm not sure if it's the same one Nicholas Cage was attached to. 🤔 Absolutely, the Faculty was a great movie. Actually, listening to you both has sparked another theory. 🙄 What if he IS a killer but not the only one? So he's trying to get away from the concert and eventually does... because there's another killer who the police are after, not him 😂
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS ... and when I'm wrong, we'll all chuckle at the dipstick in London! Maybe I should tell Josh Hartnett what my theory is if he comes to Europe/UK to promote the movie 🙄😆😆
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS I've heard theories from others that say his daughter might be, or the one I like the most: he's a killer, but not the one they are looking for.
@meganlodon All these theories are making me want to watch it even more!! M. Night is big on twists. The fact that he's allowed this reveal in the trailer.... it could be a misdirect.
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS That's what I was thinking! But I was also thinking that maybe he expects us to think it's a misdirect and it's not. I don't know, but I definitely want to watch it. Also, I actually like Night's daughter's singing; I've never heard of her before this.
@meganlodon Wait, that was his daughter?! WOW. Okay, let's agree to watch this and then come back and compare notes and talk about how right/wrong the theories were.

No body asked you for this epistle
@@chukwureed9204 I appreciated this epistle 🙂
@@NXGGLOBALPRODUCTIONS 😆 Somebody is pissed off at me. 😂 Always a weirdo in the crowd to try to stir the pot!
Can't wait for this movie.
Nice! I'm looking forward to checking it out as well 🤘
Same!!
I’m very excited for this one!!!! And yes definitely reminds me of Mr. Brooks.

Awesome video.
Thank you 😊
This is just Dexter the movie
@@westray4685 Except he's not targeting other killers
What if he's not the serial killer.
This is quite possible. Especially if they're showing this in the trailer. It could all be a misdirect. That's M. Night's M.O. 😆
