Harry Styles beat out well known actors for Dunkirk role
Quote:
“Harry was absolutely right for the role,” the film’s casting director John Papsidera revealed to The Mirror. “As an actor he is unknown but his readings made him an obvious choice.
“We thought he was fresh and interesting and he won the role,” he explained. “I don’t think he studied acting professionally and yet he won the role against some very well known actors“
"It wasn’t because he’s a well known pop star, if anything that was more of a detriment, because it could bring the wrong message and we don’t want people pulled out of the film because of who they are.
“Our aim was to have people who are fresh and don’t bring a lot of prior work with them, so the audience will be really immersed in the film and not struggling with recognisable famous personalities.
“So Harry really had to overcome hurdles to get past that. He fought hard for it and his work was impressive and that’s what attracted us to him.”
so many people have already said he is brilliant in this role & i love how he always proves doubters wrong
doubting Harry Styles is always a terrible mistake cos you will be wrong everytime
