We've all had tough days at the office. But some actors, dedicated to giving it their all, took their work a few steps too far. Though these critically-acclaimed, often award-winning performances are a delight to watch, the experience of preparing for and recovering from these roles did a number on the actors involved, and left a lasting impression - not always for the positive. Here are several actors who went the extra mile for their craft…
Isabelle Adjani - Possession | 0:21
Adrien Brody - The Pianist | 0:50
Colin Firth - The King's Speech | 1:39
Hugh Laurie - House | 2:36
Bob Hoskins - Who Framed Roger Rabbit | 3:33
Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight | 4:12
Charlie Hunnam - American TV & Movies | 4:58
Janet Leigh - Psycho | 6:03
James Cromwell - Babe | 6:33
Christopher McDonald - Happy Gilmore | 7:31

Adrien Brody & Heath Ledger is one of the worlds greatest yet most under appreciated actors. Adrien’s role in The Pianist shows his greatness as well as his performance on Peaky Blinders and Heath’s The Joker leaves me with goosebumps every time I watch the movie. Definitely both in my top five of favourite actors / actresses.

@markmauk8231 6 лет назад

In my opinion The Dark Knight is brutaly overrated. While the Jokers performance is really good, the story is absolute shit. Example wanted: The Harvey Dent plot is ridiculous. He is the best and nicest guy you could ever meet. After that, the explosion happens and he turns into an unpredictable Killer-Maniac in like...one day...It is not even the best film in its own trilogy cause that has to be Batman Begins.

@DJ-toblerone 5 лет назад

He's known as two-face before the accident because he's got this super nice guy front, but was a ruthless bastard of an investigator (not evil, but a dark and indomitable side that does not match his all-super nice charm). Before the explosion happens Harvey Dent is going around kidnapping and torturing mentally vulnerable people. He had a screw loose from the start. This mentally already deeply volatile guy with a known penchant for a darker side is mutilated while his girlfriend is horribly murdered, so he becomes a killer to take revenge on those he blames.

@kayceemxx 4 года назад

kimmyleeeeee that’s what they want you to believe, all of these actors channel demons to play these roles so well! What makes you think they care about the children’s well-being, they probably don’t know their in a horror movie, they are more than likely being scared to death in real life to make it more realistic. If you see the methods actors take to get into character to make the film more “authentic” why would the same not go for children.. these directors will do anything for the stake of the film Hence why they starve them to near death to be skinny enough

@daltonjessiebutler1092 4 года назад

Most children that are in horror movies arent actually part of the terrible things that happened in the movie they are just told to act scared or act a certain way and they have no idea how bad was happening in the movie really is. Child actors most of the time in horror movies or actually treated very well and never find out until they're older and watch the movie what they were doing

@robynn144 6 лет назад

According to several people who knew him well, Heath Ledger (1979-2008) became ill (cold or even pneumonia + insomnia) because his role in "The Dark Knight". Shortly prior to his death Ledger told a friend: "Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night. ... I couldn't stop thinking..." According to Ledger's former fiancé Michelle Williams, Ledger had struggled with insomnia often before. It is hard to know for sure, but if insomnia because of work related stress and insomnia, "pushed" Ledger to take the accidental overdose of medication, Heath Ledger surely deserves to be no. 1 on this list. Rest in peace, Mr.Ledger.

@RainCloud848 6 лет назад

ya just don't mix cough syrup with anything! he's not the first.

@masterreaper115 6 лет назад

first off bullshit. Ledger suffered from anxiety and insomnia and was medicated YEARS before the dark knight. According to interviews and testimonies from family, friends, and costars he was ecstatic about playing the joker. He claimed it was the most fun hes ever had with a character. Playing the joker didnt kill Heath Ledger, his family actually got royally pissed off and filed a few law suits because people kept making that claim.

@robynn144 6 лет назад

I agree. The role of playing the Joker DID NOT "kill" Heath Ledger. Ledger was actually working on two films at the time of his death; "Dark Knight" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". I am sure Ledger enjoyed playing the Joker; his protrayal of Joker is the best. Bui long term insomnia and/or anxiety can be very taxing and painful. It is a bitter irony that Ledger probably just wanted some much needed sleep, when he tragically took so much medication, that he did not wake up again. Ledger's passing was the loss of a truly great actor, and (as far as I know) also the loss of a kind and good man in his prime. Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.

the topic is 'actors who were never the same after a role,' not 'actors who died during filming.'

The role of playing the Joker DID NOT "kill" Heath Ledger. Ledger was actually working on two films at the time of his death; "Dark Knight" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". I am sure Ledger enjoyed playing the Joker; his protrayal of Joker is the best. Bui long term insomnia and/or anxiety can be very taxing and painful. It is a bitter irony that Ledger probably just wanted some much needed sleep, when he tragically took so much medication, that he did not wake up again. Ledger's passing was the loss of a truly great actor, and (as far as I know) also the loss of a kind and good man in his prime. Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.

@miadoe8353 5 лет назад

robynn I am simply putting these thoughts on the table because of your remarks. I enjoy intense characters myself. *Yes. Then it appears drugs killed this passionate actor, as they continue to kill today. A waste of a human life. Perhaps roles should be considered very seriously and thought through more about potential consequences. Especially if one has to turn to drugs to manage a role. Are the awards and fans asking far too much?

to me the worst case of "what could have been" was the idea of him making a sequel to the Dark Knight. the third part of the batman trilogy was good but it could have been one of the best movies of the decade with Joker 2.0

Just to clarify regarding Janet Leigh; she DID bathe! She just didn't take showers. She took tub baths. When she was in a situation where she had to use a shower, like in some hotels, she would lock the door to the bathroom, stand in the shower with the curtain or shower door open and facing the door during the entire shower.

@tonniegoddardmoon5858 5 лет назад

James Gandalfini after brilliantly portraying Tony Soprano. Look at him before, then after just six seasons. And that was some of the finest acting I've seen on or off the stage/screen. He morphed into Tony, and never played another role (nor did he have to, I guess) before his untimely death at age 51. Terrible loss for the industry; he was unmatched in his last role, absolutely unmatched. I see a lot of Shelly DuVall suggestions here, but I think she was absolutely terrible in The Shining and whatever's wrong with her now was wrong with her then. She just killed any chance of it seeming real (for me.)

All artists divorce often. Singers, Actors, Directors, models etc...It's because they both want to self realize their dreams and often put themselves over their partner. It's hard to have a time consuming career and be a good husband/father at the same time. Also famous people are often the opposite of easy going. Their ambition and not willing to settle down is what made them famous after all. Ambitious people always want more and get tired of them same partner after a while.
