When an Actor Is Too Passionate - Edward Norton

Edward Norton is a little too passionate. When he burst onto the scene in the 90s with Primal Fear, American History X and Fight Club, you think he'd have very successful career. But things really slowed down since The Incredible Hulk and when you look at the behind the scenes stories you start to see why. Norton walks the fine line between being overly passionate and controlling.

We'll be looking through Edward Norton's career when he was at his most passionate and controlling. From creating a different cut of a film that made the director denounce Norton in a 35 page ad, to getting kicked out of the MCU for not being very “collaborative”. It's said that Norton often comes to set with rewrites to whatever film he's in, but almost always his changes improve the film.
