LaBeouf blames method acting for erratic behaviour

  • LaBeouf blames method acting for erratic behaviour
Actor Shia LeBeouf says method acting is the reason behind his recent troubles.
 
He recently clashed with actor Alec Baldwin on the set of Broadway production "Orphans" and the 28-year-old says he was preparing for his role when he clashed with "The Shadow" star, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
 
Speaking to Interview Magazine, LeBeouf said: "Alec and I butted heads hard. I was sleeping in the park ... At the time, I was out of my mind".
 
"My whole goal was to intimidate the f*** out of Baldwin. That was the role. And it wasn't going to be fake. I wanted him to be scared ... So, I went about doing that for three weeks of rehearsal," he added.
 
He also blamed this for making him slap actor Alan Cumming's backside at a performance of "Cabaret".
 
He said: "I was reading about performance art of the 1960s and 1970s and so, I thought ... we're all involved here. It's not just your stage. We're all in here and we're all part of this. I was wrong," said the "Transformers" star.
