For those not familiar with method acting, it's basically a performance style that emphasises drawing on one's own personal experiences and memories in order to connect with the character one is playing. Typically, method actors will somehow "live as their character" in order to fully inhabit the role.
Here are some wild examples of times actors went fully "method" in order to better understand their role:
4.During filming for The Lighthouse, Robert Pattinson would often drink in excess before his scenes and end up licking puddles of mud, making himself sick, and weeing himself.
15.Val Kilmer had to go to therapy after he finished filming The Doors because he couldn't stop thinking like Jim Morrison.
16.And, of course, the ultimate method actor, Daniel Day Lewis, has gone the extra mile on several occasions – including remaining wheelchair-bound throughout the filming of My Left Foot.
17.He also lived in the wilderness of North Carolina for a month in order to prepare for his role in The Last of the Mohicans.
