WHET Michael Fassbender’s Movie Career

Fourth option should be “they just don’t make movies for actors like him anymore.”

From last year.

what show is he in now? He's now a daddy, boring fucker

From the year before. At that time he wasn't even on "anything on the streaming platforms or anything".

The Agency, on Paramount + Showtime.

Did he ever get sober?

He could still dominate an award season with the right role.

He's not that leading handsome anymore. Might as well ask about Viggo Mortensen's career, seems similar, very pale leading men who seem like quite alcoholics. ZzzzZzzzz

Quite.

Does he still have a giant penis?

It was a prop

He's a big bore and isn't aging well. Next!

Intensely private and extremely difficult, almost certainly on the Spectrum.

He's a known abuser.

Known by who? I’ve never heard that.

I most recently saw him in The Killer. His eye job is giving Simon Cowell vibes. No good.

I just saw him in Kneecap and he was great. He is a very, very heavy smoker and is aging very badly. He is also rumoured to be very difficult on set.

It’s well documented, R15. There were charges filed by Nicole Beharie.

quite a big cock, he will be fine.

He's volatile drunk, right? Has that affected his on-set behavior or professionalism?

is The Agency any good?

R18, Nicole Beharie didn’t accuse him of anything. It was a woman named Sunawin Andrews.

Too many duds.

He’s no longer handsome, he aged like milk, as white men that look like him do.

He has a nice cock, but apparently has zero humor about it and hated when it was brought up at parties. I understand how it may feel, but why show your dick if you don’t want it discussed? He had to know that’s the only reason anyone watched that terrible movie he showed it in.

Yeah, there was that time he posed nude on the front of THR for Shame during that awards season and it seemed a bit…like he was exploiting himself.

Not as bad as I remember but still, not exactly selling “dramatic. actor.” The film was about a sex addict not a sex object.

“ For THR's Indie Issue, Michael Fassbender exposes more than just his talent.”

I hope he has a new publicist now.

Yup, r25, then he became a prude about it. Same with Jin Hamm, who used going commando to get attention, but then acted all high and mighty when it too would come up at Hollywood social gatherings.

Somehow, female actresses showing tits and ass get over it. But holly he’ll do the men act so thin skinned over their own exploitation.

Jon Hamm

The Agency (as discussed on another thread) is a bore, though I don't think you can blame him for that one & he's in a upcoming movie with Cate Blanchett called Black Bag (or Black Purse) where he appears to be channeling Gary Oldman. Aside from getting older, he just seems like he's had the charisma sucked out of him. He's not longer drop dead sexy, but he's not particularly funny or interesting either (think of how Colin Farrell has evolved). I suppose the race car thing is where his real passion is these days & acting is just a paycheck, but boy is he dull

He was good in The Killer.

I’m enjoying the Agency and it’s gotten really good in the last two episodes.

I have notes that in many of his scenes, he doesn’t blink. Maybe that’s an acting choice to look serious

I love him; he is fine.

I'm always glad to see him on the Graham Norton Show, where his charm seems intact. But I've been burned by too many bad movies to have any hope for his career.

R24 "brought up at parties"

I dunno...I'd be annoyed, too, if randos walked up to me at parties and wanted to chat about my dick.

There's a whole posse of UK actors of about the same age who are struggling to move up the ladder (and keep from sliding down). Fassbender...Cumberbatch is probably doing the best of the lot; he still gets interesting film roles.

Hiddleston can't quite break in film...though maybe he's fine with that. He's a "TV/Film/Stage" kind of guy.

Redmayne got an Oscar but his franchise got the axe and he's doing mostly TV and stage.

He aged rapidly.

I remember reading an interview where he was extremely rude to the waitress serving him and the journalist. I went off him after that. He seems like a charmless drunk and he has made horrible choices in film roles. The Snowman? Quite possibly the worst movie ever.

I thought he would be an actor like Daniel Day Lewis instead he is like a charmless Michael Caine.

He has aged like milk too.

He looked old even in Shame and Hunger and those were a while ago. He was already aging badly. I think Richard Armitage is much sexier, gayer version of him.

R37, I feel like he is probably close to the character he played in Shame. Which isn't good.

Colin was so sexy as the Alien in Sugar, which was only ok as a vehicle. Colin has a lot of personality and charm. I think Fassbender's German side killed the Irish side.

Fassbender had a movie out last year, a movie with Cate Blanchett coming out this year and is currently starting in a well reviewed TV show.

He is fine, he sends his love.

He took his craft to a self-absorbed place where he seemed unable to relate or anyone or anything on screen with him.

And a semi-flaccid cock does what his did on film. That was the start of his in-the-mirror exhibitionism.

Unless he plans on doing full frontal in another movie his career will keep going downhill.
