Actor Paul Dano is inviting fans to ask him questions in a special Guardian reader interview. This comes after a recent controversy sparked by Quentin Tarantino's comments on Dano's acting abilities, calling him 'weak sauce'. Tarantino's remarks, made on a podcast last year, led to a strong reaction from the film community, with George Clooney, Toni Collette, Ben Stiller, and Daniel Day-Lewis coming to Dano's defense. Dano has had a successful career with notable roles in films such as There Will Be Blood, Love & Mercy, 12 Years a Slave, and Prisoners.

The film, starring Jude Law as a young Vladimir Putin, is set to release in UK and Irish cinemas on April 17. Interested fans can post their questions for Dano by 6pm GMT on April 2, and his answers will be published shortly after.
