He reveals that he already feels a massive amount of pressure to do well in the titular role. “I’m already remembering what it’s like to talk about a movie where there’s an expectation,” he explains. “Whenever you say anything, people are like, ‘Argh! You idiot!’ Like, dude, I haven’t even started yet!”

Plus, the 33-year-old is receiving major acclaim from critics who have seen his film The Lighthouse, which is surely drumming up anticipation to see the film when it releases in January 2020.
And while reviews don’t always drive ticket sales, the buzz surrounding his masturbation scene in the movie sure will. Since the star began promoting the film in October, there’s been much discussion about his “ferocious masturbation scene” and how he got into character for the film from Robert Eggers. In fact, the star acknowledged the excitement around his self-pleasure and joked that he finds it “definitely gets people talking about the film.”
Well, that’s one way to do it!
