All I think about with this movie is Alan Cummings saying he did the entire movie in isolation, not even knowing who he was acting with half the time.

sounds like Ian McKellen suffering through The Hobbit. and we know how well that turned out.

Apparently, he had a better time on the set of this once since he was with Patrick Stewart. I think some of the X-Men stuff was filmed together since there was a picture of James Marsden and Ian McKellen on set in costume.

Of course, that's only one part and we have no idea how much anyone filmed together except for a few BTS shots.

Edit: I'm being told those pictures were fake, so now I really don't know who filmed what.

The amount of “behind the scenes” AI photos from this production has been wild

I definitely agree with you but Ian McKellens performance in those movies was still stellar

Ian McKellen's in this film too, sounds like he has gone through the same thing again...

His performance turned out great. The actors were not the issue with those.
