people don’t like him in a few movies, including the joker
he has at least 9 public sexual misconduct allegations against him, including costars alluding to some additional misconduct
his fans treat him like a cult leader and he leans into it, adding to the “creepy narcissist vibe” for many people
he is an intense method actor, going so far as to send used condoms and dead rats to production companies and costars during the filming phase
That’s the jist of it, but for me there’s some additional things, like seeing some of the tiktoks he did he is just missing the mark for me. To me he comes off as inauthentic in minor ways, leading him down the uncanny valley.
I didn’t know about the sex or cult stuff. I never saw the joker, I was done with all the comic book movie by then. I like to think that if I got unconscionably rich doing something I loved I’d neither sexually harass people nor save used condoms but I guess the old folks were right, it goes to show you never can tell.

Wait, I don’t think that’s how method acting actually works.

Don’t confuse joaquin phoenix and jared leto. The 2019 Joker movie has nothing to do with jared leto.
