Interesting theory, hadn't heard it before.
Yeah interesting, can certainly see a similarity at least.

Just conveniently looking past the 34% Live by Night got, huh?
It’s funny they keep on parroting the Jay Olivia quote, casually glazing over multiple Ben quotes expressing he wasn’t satisfied with the script at all and the fact it was co written by Geoff Johns (who they hate)
“I screen-tested for ‘Batman’ and didn’t get it,” Hoult said. “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 because I was already attached to do some more of ‘The Great.’”
Agreed. He's a much better supporting actor. I don't think he can carry a major film on his own.He’s a very competent actor but a very boring screen presence for a lead, imo. He needs to lean into his more oddball character-actor side and go for those fun supporting roles. He’s far more enjoyable to watch in those, imo.
Batman kinda epitomizes the opposite of the type of roles he should do as an actor. It's hard to think of a role less suited for his skills.He’s a very competent actor but a very boring screen presence for a lead, imo.

...best part of The Flash coming out is seeing twitter re-appreciate The Batman, Pattinson/Reeves, etc. all weekend.
I loved him in Warm Bodies. Have you seen that?Nicholas Hoult is completely fine but I find him a "meh" actor. I haven't seen him totally knock a character out of the park. With the exception of About A Boy. I can't stop seeing him in that role.
