This is chef’s kiss casting.

This actor who crashed and burned from his A list status when he s.e.x.u.a..l.l.y. assaulted a studio executive has been cast as someone who plays a version of himself but fights back against being canceled.

So, s.e.x.u.a.l. assault is good?

Is that the message he wants to send?

Emile Hirsch Opens Up: How the ‘Autopsy of Jane Doe’ Star Survived His Darkest Moment

Emile Hirsch keeps himself busy these days, but he’s not always making movies. The 31-year-old actor recently finished the first draft of a novel, completed a screenplay, and spends a lot of time painting still lifes in his backyard.

Meanwhile, he’s acting in a wider range of projects than ever before. A versatile performer known for immersing himself in his roles, he currently stars opposite Brian Cox in the minimalist horror-drama “The Autopsy of Jane Doe,” opening December 21, and has a number of other efforts — from a buddy comedy with JK Simmons to a sweeping China-set period drama with an otherwise Asian cast—scheduled for 2017.

“The work itself is the goal,” he said, settling into Brooklyn eatery Sisters after a long day promoting “Jane Doe” in Manhattan. He was in the midst of a monthlong break from the novel, following the advice of Stephen King’s “On Writing,” his favorite guidebook. “I’m not looking for the next party or something,” he added. “I’m always actively engaging in something. Some sort of … fulfillment.” – Source
