He's very intense, and I am just tense. But he thought I was funny, so every time we did a take he would say, 'I can't look you directly in the eyes, or I'll break up.' So just know that in every close-up and in a scene with me, he's just looking directly at me nose.
Beau Is Afraid Could Be Joaquin Phoenix's Weirdest Movie Yet Joaquin Phoenix is known for taking on unconventional roles, although the upcoming movie Beau Is Afraid is seemingly his most experimental. The trailer hints at an intriguing storyline, psychological horror setting, and creepy shots, which are the signature of Aster films. Aster's movies also typically focus on the psyche and the horrors of the human mind, such as Hereditary and Midsommar.
Beau Is Afraid is only Aster's third feature film, while Phoenix returns to the big screen since his last movie was 2021's C'mon C'mon. Despite its surrealist nature, the director and actor share a sense of unconventionality in their style, which adds to the film's anticipation due to this pairing. As the movie gets closer to its release, it will soon be uncovered what fear Beau is confronting in his outlandish venture, whether in his mind or in the real world.
