Cate Blanchett (right, with Nina Hoss) has caused confusion after images surfaced of the actress apparently “distracted” during an interview for her new film Tár.
Social media users mocked his bizarre behaviour, with some comparing Blanchett to a ‘robot’ that had ‘run out of batteries’.
‘I thought the video was, like, partially frozen. The way he doesn’t even blink,” one person tweeted.
“It’s low on battery and had to charge for 15 seconds,” another quipped, while a third added: “Even his hands and everything.” The next stop is Madame Tussauds.

Some speculated that Blanchett was daydreaming, while others suggested that the Ocean’s Eight star was “very into” what Hoss was saying.
It comes after Blanchett was criticized for her Golden Globe-winning role in the new film Tár.
She plays Lydia Tár, who rises to become the first female conductor of a German orchestra.

While many have condemned the critically acclaimed film as ‘anti-woman’, because Blanchett’s character is revealed to be a narcissistic bully, Blanchett came to her defense in an interview with BBC Radio 4.
He described the film, directed by Todd Field, as “very provocative” and described it as “a mediation on power, and power has no gender.”
The backlash to Tár has been spearheaded by real-life director Marin Alsop, who said she was offended by the lead’s portrayal.

Marin, 66, who is one of the best directors in the world, said the aussie last Friday: “To have the opportunity to play a woman in that role to make her an abuser, to me that’s heartbreaking.”
Blanchett said Alsop had a right to give her opinion, but she distanced herself from any accusation that the film used Alsop, or any other female director, as the basis for her character.
Blanchett is tipped to win her second Best Actress Oscar for the role.
