Quotes
“It’s a slippery slope to put all your value into the vanity of what your body looks like. Your body is going to deteriorate.”
“I just want to be a part of the world. I want to have a life. I want to have the same 80-, 85-year—more or less—experience that everyone has. I don’t want to miss anything by sitting on some overly sour pile of candy.”
“From when I was 15 years old, I just really liked watching movies and doing plays and doing plays. So I didn’t really have any expectations from it. I just had to and have to do it. I’m just super lucky that it’s worked out somewhat.”
“I think I was quite confident when I was 15 years old, but I’d say that’s become increasingly less so as I get older. I wouldn’t say I’m necessarily an overly-confident person, but I think it just depends.”
“I think when you’re a little younger, you just have a tonne of gusto and pluck and courage. And trying to hang onto that can get difficult as you get older.”
“I think I have a lot of admiration and love for old Hollywood and anywhere from the 20s to the 50s. I like the idea of wearing a suit to set or wearing it to work. I think maybe there’s semblances of that in what I want to wear.”
“I think someone I’d really work with would probably be, probably, Paul Thomas Anderson or the Safdie brothers.”
“I just take it as it comes, and, hopefully, I can make movies that feel good to make and that maybe can stick around a while.”
Jacob Elordi’s projects keep on coming and his acting keeps on getting better. He is no doubt a rising star who is meant to stay with us for the long run.
