Method acting can cause problem on sets: George Clooney

LONDON - Hollywood actor George Clooney thinks method acting causes problems on set with team mates.

The “Up in the Air” actor insists he tries not to fully immerse himself in a role because he would hate to affect the bond between cast and crew and make people feel uncomfortable.

“I wouldn’t call myself a method actor - and there are some really talented ones among them. I don’t carry a role around with me. That could cause problems for other people on the team, for the whole atmosphere at work,” contactmusic.com quoted him as saying.

“For example when you have to isolate yourself for a role, avoid everyone else. When you’re shooting a film the team is your family, everyone has to feel comfortable to do a good job. That’s really important, not just from my point of view as a producer,” he said.
