"John Malkovich is such an interesting person and such a fun actor to work with"
About this Quote
The second phrase, “such a fun actor to work with,” softens the reverence. “Interesting” alone can read as intimidating, even difficult. “Fun” reassures the industry listener that the legend is not a tyrant, and that Hemsworth held his own in that orbit. It’s also a subtle self-portrait: generous, game, collaborative. In press settings, actors rarely get rewarded for specificity; they get rewarded for sounding easygoing. This is that, but with a discerning name attached.
Context matters: Malkovich carries a reputation for precision and a certain cultivated eccentricity. Hemsworth invoking him is a way of borrowing that aura while keeping the vibe relaxed. The intent is clear: respect the elder craftsman, advertise a good set experience, and quietly raise Hemsworth’s own cultural stock by aligning with an actor associated with riskier, brainier work.
