Logan Lerman, Indignation

At 24, Logan Lerman, who stars in Indignation, an acclaimed adaptation of Philip Roth’s autobiographical 2008 novel, has already navigated the sometimes precarious road from child actor to meditative adult by watching and learning. As he considers the after-effects of a career-changing role opposite Brad Pitt in 2014’s Fury, Lerman discusses how, while working on Indignation, he learned to look “for characters, not directors” and how this aids him in charting his future career.
