‘It Was Never My Intention to Be a Heartthrob’: Josh Hartnett on Finding His Focus, Shedding the Darkness of ‘Black Mirror’ and That ‘Bats— Crazy’ ‘Trap’ Script
Josh Hartnett has finally found his happy place, both professionally and personally.
The first he’ll list is Charlie Brooker, the creator of Netflix’s “ Black Mirror.” In Season 6, Hartnett was asked to be part of “Beyond the Sea,” the third episode, which was influenced by Charles Manson’s cult. But that doesn’t mean he turns his nose up to other projects; that was clear when he landed Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.” He’s quick to name directors Raoul Peck (“Exterminate All the Brutes”), Guy Ritchie (“Operation Fortune”) and M. Night Shyamalan (“ Trap ”) as helmers he admires. In the trailer, which instantly blew up online after its initial posting, Hartnett is introduced as Cooper, a loving dad bringing his daughter to a pop singer’s massive world tour.
