10 More Actors Who Took Method Acting Way Too Far

Jamie Dornan took method acting to the extreme when he decided to stalk an unknown woman to prepare for his role as a serial killer in the TV series The Fall.

Surely there was a better way to get into character than this...?

In 2015, Dornan admitted to the LA Times that he followed a woman off the train in the London Underground, and pursued her for a little while before stopping:

"I followed a woman off the train one day to see what it felt like to pursue someone like that. I really kept my distance… she got off a few stops earlier than I was planning so I said right, I have to commit to this. I followed her around a couple of street corners and then was like: what are you doing?"

To make matters worse, Dornan explained that stalking the woman felt kind of exciting, "in a really sort of dirty way", but that he wasn't proud of himself for going to that extreme.

Unsurprisingly, after Dornan revealed his stalkerish ways, it didn't go down very well on Twitter. It goes without saying that stalking someone is never okay, whether method acting or not.
