The Method is just ego, and harmful to cast cohesion. It’s worth exploring why an actor like Stewart, who imho put up two of the greatest performances of the 2010s in Clouds of Sils Maria and Personal Shopper gets labeled “difficult” while men who refuse to answer to their own name on set do not
Oh, it's just incredible and effortless how Kristen Stewart dismantles and diagnoses the pathology and ego of Brando (and... well, all the dudes in Hollywood) here. www.youtube.com/shorts/_h-iK... There's just so many parallels to tech in this. And I'm so glad she's solid in herself to just SAY it.

Trump’s attack on DEI may hurt college men, particularly White men
The Trump administration’s ban on diversity, equity and inclusion also targets gender. The ban may impact gender balancing practices that often benefit college men.
