He helped to reveal Christopher Nolan in the year 2000, with the thriller Memento which turns the brain. And yet, Guy Pearce never acted in a Christopher Nolan film again after that. He reveals in an interview with Vanity Fair the reason for this Hollywood curiosity: during the 18 years that followed MementoNolan collaborated with Warner Bros. And one of the studio executives didn't like him!
“Chris has talked to me about roles many times over the years. In the first Batman or The Prestige. But there was an executive at Warner Bros. who very openly said to my agent, 'I don't understand Guy Pearce . I'll never understand Guy Pearce. I'll never hire Guy Pearce.” So, in a way, it was good to know. Why not after all, there are actors I have to work with. bad for me too. At the same time, it meant that I would never be able to work with Chris again.”
Detailing the problem, Guy Pearce confides that this manager of Warner Bros. “just didn’t believe in me as an actor.” Christopher Nolan although he was brought to London to audition (for the role of Ra's al Ghul), it was ultimately Liam Neeson who was chosen for the job.
“They flew me to London to discuss the role of Liam Neeson and I think it was decided on my flight that I wasn't going to be in the movie. So I got there and Chris was like, Hey, actually, do you want to see the Batmobile and go to dinner?”
The deal of Christopher Nolan at Warner Bros. ended after the release of Tenet in 2020. Now at Universal, the filmmaker has made Oppenheimer. Without Guy Pearce and his new film will star Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway and more. But still without Guy Pearce…
