do straight males like Timmy C at all?


Does he ride the casting couch to get these parts ?

He makes young Tom Cruise,young Keanu Reeves ,young Brad Pitt and young Leo DiCaprio look like Arnie and Sly in comparison...Ultimate Soyboy and part of the degenerate Woke Agenda.20 years ago if he played a gay role like the one he played in Call me by your name he would be considered as Box office poison and stigmatised but in today's climate it's a non issue.I think he is Box office poison but the rest of the cast is A List and the movie will be saved.1984 Dune lacked big stars and it failed at the Box office because of that(and many other factors) Dune 2021 will not be a financial success but I think it will break even(3 times its budget) EDIT:After watching it it will not break even it will flop

THIS... so much this!

I can't believe there was someone who was more effeminate than young Leo yet here we have this kid, who looks like he would willingly go on a prison tour just to bottom the most muscled up inmates in the yard.

Good thing we have moved past those days huh? How about actors are doing this bizarre thing we call acting. Remember how Heath Ledger played a gay cowboy but then went on to portray the Joker? It is almost as if the guy portraying them actually acted the part he was asked to.

I don't lol.

He has this one look, which was needed for the Character of Paul I guess. He turns out like a soft version of kylo ren in this movie. The acting is very weak in this movie anyway....

i'll give anyone a chance, but i definitely find him offputting.

he's the perfect lead guy for our time, i guess. effeminate, frail, passive. anyone with more than a slight build or an aggressive attitude would just be a beacon of toxicity.

Two films I’ve seen him in, totally unconvincing in both.

Terrible as a warrior king (Henry V) and as Paul Atreides he’s easily the worst thing about Dune, too scrawny and passive for leading man in action roles.

Nepotism... White Christian males run hollywood and give each other leading roles frequently.

I doubt he rides the casting couch - but he might have been ridden.
I bet in the sequel, he's gonna come out, like everyone else does in the modern remakes. Superman turned bi - lol.

The casting in the original was way better - the lead wasn't buff, but he also didn't look like he'd fall at the first hint of a wind, like this fella.

Paul is supposed to be 15 years old. Past Dune projects had guys in their mid-20s playing him but he’s actually supposed to he very young. While there are some big teens out there, most are slim.
