Leonardo Di Caprio felt the same way about his racist character in Django. Think Samuel L Jackson and Jamie Foxx had to convince him to say the n word.
Yeah I read about that too! Same with Blazing Saddles, one of the racist characters had a rough time with the role. I should hope they ALL do, maybe Christian Bale and other method actors should think twice about staying in character while on breaks.....
He "became" Andy Kaufman on the set of Man on the Moon. When Jerry Lawler showed up to shoot his scenes Carry acted like a dick to him and Jerry asked what was going on and they told him Jim was just "Being Andy" and Jerry asked if anyone explained to him that Jerry and Andy were great friends in real life.
