WTF Happened to Josh Hartnett?

Josh Hartnett was the biggest heartthrob of the late nineties. Bursting onto the scene in Robert Rodriguez’s The Faculty in 1998, his status was reaffirmed by Halloween H20 and Sofia Coppola’s The Virgin Suicides. However, his career hit its stride in the early 2000s when he became a leading man in movies like Michael Bay’s Pearl Harbor, Ridley Scott’s Black Hawk Down and more. Yet, towards the middle of the decade, his career started to cool after a string of flops including Lucky Number Slevin, The Black Dahlia and others.

He disappeared from the scene for a few years, turning up in obscure oddities like Bunraku, only to return in the cult series Penny Dreadful, which had a successful run on Showtime. Recently, he’s seemed on the cusp of a significant comeback following a scene-stealing turn in Guy Ritchie’s Wrath of Man, with him re-team with Ritchie and star Jason Statham in Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, while he’s also in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. Join us in this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity as we dig into his surprisingly epic career.
