After Memento, Guy Pearce explained why he didn’t collaborate with Christopher Nolan.
Pearce stated that he had “not really” stayed in contact with the director in an interview with Vanity Fair.
Over the years, he had a few conversations with me regarding roles. The Prestige and the original Batman. However, a Warner Bros. official told my agency rather bluntly, “I don’t get Guy Pearce.” Guy Pearce will never be mine. “I will never hire Guy Pearce,” he declared to the publication.
Pearce stated, “I think he just didn’t believe in me as an actor,” despite the fact that he is unaffected by Nolan’s disagreement with him. That’s good to know, in a way.
