Joaquin Phoenix Reviews, Interviews & More

Now that the truth is out regarding Joaquin Phoenix's latest "film" I'm Still Here, we're ready for him to get back into the real acting game. The two-time Oscar nominee claimed to have retired from his craft back in 2008 while embarking on a hip hop career that turned out to be a hoax. According to Vulture, director Clint Eastwood wants to bring Phoenix back into the...

It was recently revealed by director Casey Affleck that his documentary I'm Still Here that focuses on the wild and crazy life of Joaquin Phoenix was all a lie. That's right it was fake. Phoenix hasn't retired from acting, he just put on one, if not the greatest performance of his career. So we're not surprised that Vulture is reporting that he may join the cast of...

In a recent Twitter interview with Werner Herzog for the DVD release of his film My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done? David Lynch tweeted in (like he does) asking Werner to "share the story of when Werner bravely saved Joaquin Phoenix's life"and Werner so kindly and simply told one of the best, random film stories to date. Not long after First Look posted the video...

It seems like just yesterday a heavily bearded, sun glass wearing Joaquin Phoenix made his iconic appearance on the "Late Show With David Letterman." At the time we didn't realize what the hell was going on with him, but in hindsight we now know that it was part of his new film I'm Still Here. Now in promotion of the finished product, Phoenix will...

Also check out our I'm Still Here movie review from the Venice Film Festival. This weekend Casey Affleck's much talked about documentary I'm Still Here opens in theaters. The film follows a (lost) year in the life of actor Joaquin Phoenix as he attempts to step away from the world of Hollywood and into the world of music. In the first clip released...

Lets gets down to it. The film just premiered at The Venice Film Festival and much like the people there, the real reason you're going to watch I'm Still Here is to try and figure it out for yourselves, not because I tell you the score or the cinematography is so good. The question we've been asking ourselves since we heard the rumor that...

***Update: Read full I'm Still Here review now!*** Besides Black Swan, the most talked about film at this year's Venice Film Festival has been Casey Affleck's documentary, I'm Still Here. It chronicles a (lost) year in the life of actor turned aspiring hip hop artist Joaquin Phoenix as he steps outside of his...

Do you remember when Joaquin Phoenix was a young, talented, and handsome Oscar nominated actor whose career was on the incline? If so you must also vividly remember when all that went to crap after he stopped shaving, combing his hair, or exercising in any capacity. His new disgruntled look was only mirrored by his equally strange behavior and on the outside none of us had any idea what he...

Do you remember when Joaquin Phoenix was a respected up and coming actor? Do you remember when he received an Oscar nomination for his amazing performance as a psycho emperor in Gladiator? Most importantly do you remember when he went batshit crazy, started dressing like a hobo, and acting like he was under the influence of some serious drugs? That last moment in his...

Update: Edward Norton has released an official statement regarding his recasting. One of the biggest questions hovering over Marvel's Avengers movie (besides Chris Evans ability to play a believable leader) was whether or not Edward Norton would return to play Bruce Banner aka The Hulk. According to several reports this weekend the character will...

Deadline New York has just broke the scoop that Casey Affleck has officially completed the mockumentary he directed about his brother-in-law Joaquin Phoenix's metamorphosis from actor to hip-hop musician. For the past year or so it's been hard to tell if Phoenix has completely gone mad or if he's actually been doing it all for a film - if so this may be one of the best films ever created. After...

Personally, I thought this was a little too mean. Obviously Joaquin Phoenix is having a bit of a rough time. Do we really need to mock him at a huge event? What do you think?

[youtube HXpYk7WGN5Y 570 420] This is one of those moments that make staying up late to watch the frequently mind numbing Letterman completely worthwhile. Watch as Joaquin Phoenix mumbles, grumbles and gets angry in what is likely one of the most awkward and delightfully uncomfortable interviews to date. I wouldn't want to talk to Letterman either and this interview was...

Seems like we're losing a lot of the greats. All of them are at different stages in their careers, with different reasons behind their decisions, but they all agree on one thing, they want out of the biz. A few weeks ago Joaquin Phoenix announced that he would be leaving acting for a music career. Then Nicole Kidman said that after her next film she would be...

Here is the video of Joaquin Phoenix officially announcing his leave from acting. Despite what other rude reports are saying (LatinoReview - See you in a few years Joaquin, when you realize nobody remembers you and your music career consists of you opening for Clay Aiken or Aldo Nova at the county fair.") I'm guessing by the sound of it, that Phoenix thought about this long and hard and didn't...

Joaquin Phoenix has had enough of the film business and is ready to take on the music industry. I guess he took Walk the Line a little more seriously than we all thought. Yesterday he spoke with Extra and told them, "I want to take this opportunity, also to give you the exclusive, and just talk a little bit about the fact that this will be my last...
