“After reading Michael Schulman’s profile of Jeremy Strong — a profile in which I participated — I wanted to speak up,” the director wrote in a letter posted to Twitter by actress Jessica Chastain.
In the letter, the director shares the “five questions via email” he was asked by the profile writer as well as his responses in full about the actor whose process he likens at one point to Dustin Hoffman’s. This includes Sorkin’s answers about Strong’s use of a kazoo during ascene with actor Frank Langella, who played Judge Julius Hoffman, as well as Strong’s request while filming that same movie to be tear-gassed.star’s process.
Sorkin states that “only one and a half” of his answers were reused for the profile — those answers about the tear gassing request and the kazoo use on set — which he admits “is perfectly normal” for the kind of reported piece theprofile was. Still, the director clarifies that his comments on either of those issues were merely him “telling the story affectionately and as a way of demonstrating [Strong’s] commitment.
“Let me be clear, Jeremy would never suggest endangering a member of the cast or crew or anyone else,” he wrote. “Nor would Jeremy ever consider disrespecting an actor. And certainly not Frank Langella. Frank, a four-time Tony Award-winning actor who himself asked to not be in the makeup trailer at the same time as the actors playing the defendants, would tell you himself that he encouraged the defendants to annoy him.
