You’ve heard of actors ‘going method’ for their roles, and while we often think of performers enduring emotional hardships, sometimes going ‘method’ just means learning a musical instrument or two - or more! That can’t be so hard, right? Actors like Jenna Ortega, Ryan Gosling, and Bradley Cooper might have a different story for you. Surprisingly, some MCU Alumni like Tom Hiddleston and Robert Downey Jr. dove into the task as well. All these performers learned to play at least one instrument for their role in a film, and some of them even learned to sing- as well as more than one instrument. If you’ve ever tried learning to play a musical instrument, you’d probably agree that it’s no small task. And while it can take years to feel comfortable playing in front of an audience or camera, these actors turned pro musicians in only a few weeks! We’re talking hours of practice a day for some, while one actor dove in full-force, living a VERY rough lifestyle and dedicating all their time to learning the musical ways. Any guesses which actor not only learned to play a tricky instrument - but did so using their left hand!? One poor actor suffered from blisters and some seriously sore hands as a result of playing for all those hours - and let’s not forget, this was all the work BEFORE they even started filming the roles for the cameras. The results of this practice did turn out pretty well for some who received Oscar nominations and even wins for their performances! We’d say that seems worth ti. What do you think? Let us know in the comments!
