Joseph Gordon-Levitt looks dapper-dandy in the new pages of Elle magazine where they've labeled him, their “Elle Man” of the year!
On creating the production company HitRecord.org... “Nobody wanted to hire me - I can see where they wouldn’t want the kid from 3rd Rock From the Sun. I came to the conclusion, I’m not going to wait for somebody to tell me that I’m allowed to be creative. The metaphor of pushing that red button sort of became my symbol for that kind of self-started creativity.”
Independent filmmaker, Gregg Araki, who worked with Joseph on his critically acclaimed film, "Mysterious Skin" said this about the dreamy-eyed actor...“It’s great when younger actors are trying to do things besides be a movie star and drive fancy cars and go to clubs,” he says. “Joe’s a creative artist; he has a thirst for knowledge and art and experience. He’s not living a superficial life.”
50/50 co-star Bryce Dallas Howard, on Joseph...“My dad [director Ron Howard] said Tom Hanks always talked about equipoise. It’s total relaxation and complete focus at the same time. That’s the biggest struggle for an actor - not to be focused but amped up, or relaxed and sloppy. Joe’s relaxed and hyper-present always.”
