Josh Hartnett Nearly Lost It Over 'Below' Accent Mix-Up

Actor thought he was about to become the next meme—until he actually watched what he made.

Josh Hartnett just came clean about the wild ride making Below. Dude was genuinely spooked when early comparisons to Widow's Bay started floating around. That "scary situation" vibe? Real. He thought he'd accidentally walked into the wrong project.

Then he saw the actual trailer and hit the relief button hard. "Oh, thank God," he told The Hollywood Reporter—because what came together on screen wasn't what the internet's first take had suggested. Sometimes the jump from set to screen is bigger than you think, and Hartnett learned that lesson the hard way.

On top of the accent anxiety, production nearly got derailed by a car accident that had everyone holding their breath. But the crew pushed through, and whatever landed on film convinced Hartnett he'd dodged a career misstep. That's the kind of story that doesn't make the final cut—just the actor's relief.
