Profile

I read several profiles on Jared Leto and the one that stood out to me was an article on The Guardian by John Patterson. It was a very detailed article about how Jared Leto should win an Oscar for best supporting actor for his role Rayon, a transgender character in Dallas Buyers Club. The article goes on talking about the preparation for his role and really gives good insight on how he created this character. The article goes on to talk about his early life and how he became an actor and his successful roles he has taken on in the past. He was part of a TV show called My So Called Life and they talked about that for a little bit. The article then mentions his troubles with his serious approach to acting. Sometimes he acts out without meaning to because he is so immersed into the character. This really shows how much of a dedicated actor he is and how serious he is. I really agree with the article's opinion of him getting an Oscar because he truly was amazing of how he portrayed Rayon in the movie. I have never liked a character so much and so heartbroken at such a great loss. He really gave that character life and his immersion to the role is very apparent. The article then mentions about his band, 30 Seconds to Mars. The band in it of itself is such a success. He constantly tours but still manages to come back to acting in such a strong force. I think he's a great actor and really deserves the recognition he should receive.
