Chloe Sevigny admitted that working with Christian Bale on ‘American Psycho’ was ‘really challenging’ because she wanted 'more generosity' from him
Chloë Sevigny struggled to connect with Christian Bale while filming American Psycho due to his Method acting process.
Bale, 50, starred as Patrick Bateman, an investment banker with a double life as a serial killer, in the 2000 satirical psychological horror film. Sevigny played his secretary, Jean, while Lucas, 52, played his colleague Craig McDermott.“I wanted a little more generosity to make myself feel more at ease, which is my own ego. It was a really challenging dynamic for me, but I don’t think that I thought he was bad,” she explained.
“He was capable of having these crazy layers going on in what he was doing. I thought it was bogus acting at the time, but was exactly the opposite,” he said. 'It’s kind of surprising that Christian would be emotionally invested the way he is, because he was a child actor,' she said. 'It’s not like he studied in college and then became this Method-y, Brando-y kind of thing. He found this journey from being a child actor to then an adult actor that I think is a really interesting trajectory, and I’m curious about that.'
