This happens over and over again and they don’t learn. The last one was Jacob Elordi, an Australian with a Basque grandfather who, at 26, is about to become Hollywood’s next great actor. In his latest interview with the magazine GQthe young performer insisted that the films that made him famous were absurd. Refers to My first kissfrom Netflixwhose first film earned him 4 million subscribers overnight.

“It was a trap”

My first kiss This is a typical light-hearted teen/young adult film about a high school romance. But like many others, Elordi has a terrible idea of ​​light films.. He needed a job and accepted it, believing it was something temporary that would allow him to continue to pursue opportunities that would push his career.

Never imagined this would be My first kiss. And to this day, when he promotes independent films such as Saltburn Emerald Fennell or Priscilla Sofia Coppola thanks to its virality, considers this something terrible. “It’s a trap because it can be everything to them and nothing to you. You have no original ideas and you are dead inside. It’s a very fine line. I’ve already done my part,” he insists in an interview. .

But As for Jacob Elordi, there is nothing new here.. He is not the only young actor who is overcome by the sweetness of sudden fame and who rejects his origins, the reason for such explosive interest in him.
