Willem Dafoe jokes about working in the film Joker
Willem Dafoe began his monologue by giving a background on his acting career. His journey began in New York, where he rented an apartment that had a bathtub in its kitchen. Additionally, the actor joked that he wasn’t a great actor like Nicholas Cage or Al Pacino.
“Some people tell me that my acting is over the top, but to me, one man’s over-the-top is another man’s engaged performance.”
Willem Dafoe says that everyone suggests the actor portray the role of Joker because of his expressive appearance. The Spider-Man: No Way Home actor has stated the following about the same:
“I don’t think about controlling it. I’m not one of those subtle actors like Nicolas Cage or Al Pacino. Maybe that’s why people come up to me and say, ‘You know what role you’d be perfect for? The Joker. Always nice to hear that you’ve got the vibe of a sociopath.”
