Nicholas Hoult: “I screen-tested for Batman and didn’t get it. Screen-tested for ‘Top Gun,’ didn’t get it. Then I got the call from Tom Cruise: ‘Hey, how about Mission Impossible?’ Ok. Got it. Then I had to drop out." https://t.co/UODJ5Asaj8

I really like him, but I don't think he would have worked for Top Gun or The Batman. Bummer about Mission Impossible, though!!

mte, he would’ve fit well in MI but the rest all worked out for the best tbh

i'm p sure Glen's role was like written FOR Glen so def not that. If it hadn't been Miles in that role I'm sure it would've been Glen in that role.

Glen read for Rooster but didn’t get it. They offered him Hangman but he initially turned it down because he was bummed and didn’t want it to be a one note character. Tom talked him into it. McQ worked with Glen to write the role for him and imo it turned out great.

This is an incredibly gross comment.

it was a reference to when maxxie said he gave bad head, but i deleted it.

, it was most likely Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw (Miles Teller)

I haven't seen the movie, but if the character was supposed to be a douche, Teller was the best.

Rooster was supposed to be a douche only to Maverick, but he definitely came across as douche-y to everyone lol.

I like how reviews for Renfield are all over the place, including at least one calling it the worst vampire movie ever.

[sandstorm]

Well, they clearly never saw the Cirque Du Freak adaptation if they think THIS is the worst.

I feel like it just looks fun?

Divisive reviews like this make me so much more interested in seeing it lol
