The actor will soon be seen in Unhinged. Talking about the film, he said: "It was a whole bunch of driving stuff and car accidents, playing a really, really dark character completely lacking in humanity. And look, I got a different hairdo, I've coloured my beard, I've changed all these other things, but my engine was used to revving way higher, so that just felt really easy."

Unhinged is scheduled for release on July 31, and will be a big test case to see if people are willing to return to theatres at the moment. "Well, we'll see what happens. The studio is doing constant revisions on the idea in tandem with the exhibitors and local governments. It's a hard position to take, but at the end of the day, somebody has to do it. They've got to test the water and see if that part of our life can come back," said the actor.

"The core thing that they said that's captured is how much fun it was to be in his company. And (it was important to me) to not fall into the trap of saying, 'I'm going to play the baddest man alive, who has ripped the moral thread of America asunder'. Because if you do that, you're actually displaying the bias that the piece talks about in the first place," he said, adding: "I have to say I'm not a regular news watcher anymore, not that I was prior to this job especially. And I could never watch Fox News before anyway."
