‘Terrible Performance’: Brian Cox Rips Joaquin Phoenix’s Napoleon To Shreds

‘Terrible Performance’: Brian Cox Rips Joaquin Phoenix’s Napoleon To Shreds

Movies



Joaquin Phoenix may be regarded as one of the best actors of our generation, but the Oscar winner doesn’t necessarily impress Brian Cox. The Succession lead cast member recently shared his thoughts on Ridley Scott’s latest movie, Napoleon, and he has a strongly negative opinion of Phoenix’s performance as Napoleon Bonaparte in the biopic.

Brian Cox has been known to not stray away from voicing his contrarian thoughts in the past, such as when he threw shade at Johnny Depp by calling him “overblown.” Cox’s latest words of this sort are directed at Joaquin Phoenix. As the 77-year-old actor said:

Terrible. It’s terrible. A truly terrible performance by Joaquin Phoenix. It really is appalling. I don’t know what he was thinking. I think it’s totally his fault and I don’t think Ridley Scott helps him. I would have played it a lot better than Joaquin Phoenix, I tell you that. You can say it’s good drama. No – it’s lies.
