Edward Norton recalls filming with Meat Loaf

Edward Norton has publicly paid tribute to Meat Loaf. Both stood together in front of the camera for the 1999 cult film “Fight Club”. The day after Meat Loaf’s death, Norton took to Twitter to recall filming with the acting singer, who played a former bodybuilder with testicular cancer on Fight Club.

He has no photos of films and filming at home, Norton said. But there is a framed one in his office that makes him laugh every time, he wrote – and posted that photo. “Love and Hugs, Meat” is engraved on the frame, “and that pretty much sums it up,” Norton says. “He was so funny. And friendly. And warm. A lovely soul. RIP Meat Loaf.”

In another tweet, Norton said, “To us he will always be ‘Bob.’ We had a wonderful couple of months filled with laughter and disrespect. The hardest part about working with Meat was getting through all those silly moments without bursting out laughing.” Norton illustrated one of those moments:

Meat Loaf died on January 20, 2022 at the age of 74 – allegedly as a result of corona disease. Michael Lee Aday, Meat Loaf’s real name, had his first major film appearance in 1975 in the “Rocky Horror Picture Show”, and he celebrated his greatest success in 1979 with “Bat Out Of Hell”. “I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)” was his last major world hit in 1994.
