Jonathan Majors Describes Himself As An Introvert
During the interview, the actor was asked whether he was ready for all the fame that was coming his way. He responded by reminiscing about all the private activities he’s managed to fit in since waking up next to his daughter in the early morning.
“That’s where the 4 am wake-ups come in,” he says. “There’s no glory in being an introvert. This isn’t me offering a praise song to the introvert. But you are what you are… My temperament is my temperament. I’m slow to anxiety, but I’m also slow to excitement and I believe those things go hand-in-hand. I may be wrong, but I know that, for me, if I start getting excited, I also start getting anxious. And at this level, with these stakes, there’s really no time for that.”
Jonathan Majors is slowly trying to fill the shoes of Josh Brolin, who played the supervillain in the MCU.
