And that's just performance day 1. Imagine them keeping this up night after night for months...
I can't imagine that any actor who takes Aqua's "angst is art" approach to acting would be any fun to watch, or would be able to consistently get roles based on that, because they wouldn't be fun to watch.
Sure Arima was "the kid who could cry on cue" but there was a lot more to her than that.
Can anyone think of famous actors who likely act based on suffering?

Not like Aqua anyway. There are a couple of examples of actors feeling traumatized from their roles I can think of. Some due to the subject matter (Adrien Brody in The Pianist, Kate Winslet in The Reader), others due to the conditions on set (Shelly Duvall in The Shining, basically everybody in The Room), and others due to stuff that happened after release (Ahmed Best for Jar Jar Binks, Heather Donahue from Blair Witch Project).
