The Scottish actor has said that he began to doubt his ability to act when he first saw the 1993 film In The Name Of The Father, starring Day-Lewis.
The 38-year-old told the Los Angeles Times: "Daniel has made me want to give up acting a lot.
"When I watch him, I think, 'What's the point? There's no point in carrying on'. That's it."
McGregor's latest film Amelia, starring Hilary Swank, is currently playing in the US and arrives in UK cinemas on November 13.
