JACOB ELORDI SMOLDERS
Hot, Talented + Focused
Jacob Elordi is on a hot streak. From Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, to Emerald Fennel’s Wuthering Heights and the final, nail-biting season of Euphoria, Elordi has dominated our screens—and we’re not mad about it. His introductory role may have The Kissing Booth, Netflix’s teen romance series, but his role on Euphoria demonstrated levels of depth and range. And give him credit for his accent — who would have known he was Australian without hearing an interview?
Elordi has been the sultry amazing lead for many years. He continues to lean into the seductive, while also working with auteurs. He’s using his influence to get his fanbase to go to the movies and watch films from historic directors like Sofia Coppola, Paul Schrader, and now Ridley Scott. That’s right, Elordi teams up with the storied director for The Dog Stars, a film based on the dystopian novel of the same name. He joins Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin, and Guy Pearce in a world that was struck by a pandemic. While they’re all trying to survive, chaos obviously ensues. With Scott at the helm and Elordi in the leading role, The Dog Stars is poised to be one of the best of the year.

The Dog Stars isn’t the only adaptation on his upcoming roles list. Elordi will also start alongside PROVOKR’s favorite actress, Scarlett Johansson, in Cormac McCarthy’s Outer Dark. The thriller follows a mother whose brother gives away her baby. In her quest to find her baby, she’s chased by killers. The thriller is bound to be epic with two of our favorite actors.

But that’s not all! Elordi will star in horror director Ari Aster’s upcoming film with, you guessed it, Scarlett Johansson. Aster will direct the pair in a thriller called Scapegoat from A24. This continues the streak of Elordi making the best choices for his career and bringing his fans into the sphere of cinema.
We can’t speak more highly of Jacob Elordi. He has the looks. He has the talent. And he has the focus to make an even bigger career for himself.
