People seem to take this to mean he hated the role by week 3 and wanted out, I thought it meant he was sick of sweating into the same outfit every night.
I mean PR is inportant and showing face. He’s not just going to shit on it. Im not here to discredit how much he may have enjoyed it and his castmates - it seemed he did have a good time with them. Just stating the obvious that the fandom was likely challenging and slowly came to damper the experience. It was all over his face. I saw the show and witnessed the stage door (and even how people were acting inside the theater trying to bribe ushers to bring things to the cast backstage and insert themselves into their lives as if they knew them) firsthand and it was uncomfortable to say the least. It just seems that that would be a lot to deal with and really take away from the meaning/art of what he was there to do. With that said - he’s talented and of course beautiful (why we are all here). I genuinely look forward seeing how his career progresses and seeing his handsome face on our screens. I’m sure R&J was a good growth experience and he learned what works for him in terms of future boundaries.
They washed them daily, and he likely had several of the same costume pieces. They would have had to since there was fake blood on some of them.
I've heard other actors say that theater is stressful and doesn't play well. Way more stressful than regular tv and film
He sure is lol. It’s funny how defensive folks are about the obsessive/toxic side of the fandom toward him lol
Super toxic to think artists owe us something in return when they are already giving to us. It is a generous gift for them to give more of their time to fans and other appreciators of their art. We shouldn’t look at celebrities like they owe us something or an interaction. It’s nice to acknowledge and thank them for their work and if they accept the interaction and engage further - then great. But, it should not be an expectation. I think Kit went FAR past above and beyond with his R&J interactions that put him in corner that he couldn’t back out of without looking like an asshole. I think it is unfair and not right to think he owed everyone an interaction. I can’t 100% say for sure he was distressed completely by the entitled and cringey fans, but it sure seemed it. It reads in the majority of the stage door content captured by fans on tik tok etc. it looked intensely stressful. He didn’t jump out of the stage doors joyously - it seemed dreadful. There’s no way that didn’t damper his experience with the show in some way - just on a human emotional/physical exhaustion level after a performance. Fans need to have a little more decorum and respect for his and other celebs space. It’s weird to even really defend it or pretend it wasn’t a problem or detriment to the actual art being performed and experience of the performers.
