Austin Butler opens with a frightening fear of health he has faced while balancing a demanding work schedule.
The actor revealed that he had briefly blinded during a flight to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he was to start filming Bikerideurs.
Speak with Men’s healthThe Oscar candidate remembers waking up halfway with a severe migraine, just like the plane landed.
“I had the impression that life was sucking on my body,” said Butler. “I suddenly felt a euphoric feeling, and I really thought I suspected myself.”
For a few minutes, he suffered a temporary vision loss before his sight gradually returned.
Despite the test, Butler went directly to work the same day, dirtying the incident to the extreme exhaustion and lack of rest.
BikerideursDirected by Jeff Nichols and based on Danny Lyon’s photo book in 1968, tells the story of Vandals MC, a Midwest motorcycle club in the late 1960s which went from a refuge for foreigners in a dangerous gang.
By thinking about his acting trip, Butler admitted that he was thinking once the crafts should be painful.
“For a long time, I felt that it should be a tortured process and I was getting out of the broken side,” he shared. Over time, however, he attributes to actress Laura Dern to help her change this perspective.
According to Butler, she encouraged him to see acting as something that could also heal, saying that through her “perhaps pieces of you healed, synthesized and metabolized. This can be therapeutic, in a way. ”
Now, the Elvis Star is more aware of his well-being, emphasizing the importance of balance and rest.
“You don’t have to destroy the light,” said Butler, clearly indicating that the protection of his health is as important as the work himself.
