Jacob Elordi is the star of British GQ's September 2022 issue, photographed by Eli Russell Linnetz. In the accompanying interview, the Euphoria star dishes filming the hit HBO series and reflects on overnight fame.
• On overnight fame: "I had to go through [Instagram] and delete my high school pictures because that was the account that I used for my life. I wish people could understand how drastic that change is."
• On high school: "From the moment I did a play I was called gay at school. But I had this abundance of confidence in myself. Because I could do both: I was quite good at sport and I think I was quite good at theater. I felt like I was above it, or it made me feel older. It made me feel wiser. I never was worried that my peers would think that I was less than a man...
"I enjoyed playing the actor. I stepped away from beer culture and from sport culture, and I was like, Well, if you think this is gay, I'm going to be who I am when I was your friend, which is this hetero guy, but I'm going to play the arts. I'm going to do it, and I'm going to show you that's bullshit."
• On shooting Euphoria: "For me, working on that set is an absolute treat. When I'm working with Sam [Levinson], I'm in the trenches with him, and I trust him, and I work myself to the bone for him. I think I've read people saying, 'Look, that's a bad image to set, you shouldn't have to work yourself to the bone for art.' Fuck that. I enjoy it."
