Fassbender Covers GQ-Covering the November edition of GQ, out October 22nd, The Counselor actor Michael Fassbender is photographed by Peggy Sirota in a rugged laid-back look. Talking about his apparent darkness, Fassbender elaborates, “Let me put it to you this way, right? A lot of comedians are dark personalities, but they’re making people laugh. So, you know, it can flip the other way. People that are playing dark roles can actually be quite light. It doesn’t necessarily go hand in hand. I think sometimes maybe people that are lighter can access that darkness easier, whereas people that are dark don’t like to access it. …It’s too much maybe part of them that they don’t want to reveal. I know that I’ve got darkness, but for the most part I try and smile as much as I can, you know? I mean, David Cronenberg said it annoyed him that I used to come to work happy all the time.”
