Someone was listening LOL
Also call me wrong but Leo hated it when he became a massive movie star aka the Leo mania. It's also a fact Leo mania happened because of Leos look mainly and not his talent in the first place and don't try to tell me otherwise 😄 He just happened to be talented too and this is why his career survived the Titanic/Jack Dawson phenomen and can stand by his own but also let's not pretend he isn't where he is today because of this role and movie and also his look even today. So this kind of poster boy fame is actually nothing that much desirable for a young actor. I think the only actor who remotely came close to such hype is Robert Pattinson and he was similar unhappy about it. He also managed having a decent post Twilight career. That being said a long-lasting career is never just about talent otherwise people like Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Tom Cruise and maybe even Brad Pitt wouldn't have one lol
However I would die if Paul would be cast in THE WAGER next to Leo.
Well, in my opinion,he is where he is today because of his good looks and talent too (that's for sure!), but there is also another very important thing which maybe only a few stars carry and which make them special let's say, which is charisma.
Let's pretend any other actor would play the role of Jack Dawson instead of Leo, do you think Titanic would have become this massive hit? We will never know for sure, but maybe it wouldn't. So it's not only about good looks and talent, but charisma also plays a very important part here, and that's why we don't see so many young actors achieving that same kind of craze Leo has gone through, even nowadays. On the other hand, that doesn't mean these same actors aren't talented at all, they are. I just think it may take a while till another "Leo" takes Hollywood by storm.
Just my 2 cents 🤣, although I agree with a few points. And Paul Mescal is very good, I do feel like he is next in line 🤭. Let's just see if they can make it through, because it's really not an easy task.

Esquire about Austins try to be the first movie star since Leo - the last movie star so far. Just posting because it's always nice to see that Leo is still... well... the goal every young actor is reaching for.
They Don't Make Them Like Austin Butler Anymore
After Elvis and the Oscar-nomination, the 32-year-old actor is back with two buzzy projects: Masters of the Air and Dune: Part Two. He's got a burning ambition and old-school Hollywood charm—and steely-eyed focus on just one thing.
He will take this world in inches. And then, as a man, through sheer force of desire and artistic abandon, he’ll try to become the first movie star since Leonardo DiCaprio became the last movie star.
Doubt him if you will. But don’t underestimate his chances.
(...)
The thing is, Butler wants to be a particular kind of star. Not just a celebrity. Not just an actor. And he doesn’t want to mess it up. Certainly not by sharing too much. Who he is, to some degree, is at odds with what he wants. That desire to probe and share is diametrically opposed, he says, “with the type of career that I want to have, which is to be able to step into all these different types of people. I think of the days of Paul Newman—we didn’t know a ton about his personal life.” It’s like that with a lot of the stars he admires. Leonardo DiCaprio. Christian Bale. Daniel Day-Lewis.
“Did we talk about the Lew Wasserman quote?” he asks me the second time we meet. We’re back at Margaux. Different booth. Different lunch order. Avocado toast with poached eggs on Monday; a grilled-chicken sandwich on Wednesday. Butler’s outfit is a perfect inversion of what he wore two days ago: a dark Henley beneath a white T-shirt. Anyway, back to the quote. “Near the end of Wasserman’s life,” Butler begins, referring to the onetime Tinseltown titan, “when speaking about a young actor, Wasserman said, ‘Only let them see him in a dark room.’ ”
(Funny enough, that quote once ran in these very pages, in Tom Junod’s 2013 profile of DiCaprio. During one passage, DiCaprio’s manager, Rick Yorn, recalls a run-in with Wasserman. “ ‘Lew was old and near the end by this time,’ Yorn says. ‘He died a year or two later. But he knew I was Leo’s manager, and he wanted to give me some advice. He said, “Only let them see him in a dark room.” It took me a minute to figure it out. But what he meant was only let people see him in the movie theater. That’s the dark room.’ ”)
(...)
The next Brad Pitt. The next Leonardo DiCaprio. How many young breakouts have been taunted by such titles just to dissolve into the background? Become that guy in that thing. The one who almost was.
The reality of right now is that whether there will ever be another Brad or Leo is not a question of talent but of the studio system itself. How many of the movies between those two men would even be released in theaters if they were made today? The Beach, The Basketball Diaries, Thelma & Louise—they’d be critically acclaimed streaming releases at best in 2024. Some would become TV shows.
(...)
It’s impossible to forecast the future of Hollywood. Will grown-up movies make a comeback? Will Movie Stars continue to exist?
But I’ll tell you what I do know: From the second that Austin Butler appears as the young-adult Elvis, moments before the first musical performance of the film, bristling with an intoxicating swirl of nerves, excitement, and untapped confidence; from the minute he, as Buck Cleven, leans in, desire written all over his face, a smile flirting with the corners of his mouth, and whispers, “A girl worth writing to is hard to find”—well, there’s no taking your eyes off him.
Can't believe my eyes after reading this, he is easy on the eye, ok...but... sorry. They tried with Timothee, this Austin guy now, that Jacob Elordi, is Paul Mescal next in line maybe? I am not saying these guys are bad actors at all, Paul Mescal is a very good actor for example, but Leo was just 23 when he became a massive star all over the world.
He took the world by storm.
Me after reading. I wear specs too.

Leo and his beautiful hands! It seems he has a very humble background in this movie and he is holding a small "pink" backpack, maybe his daughter's? Now I can't wait to see more pictures.♥️ Thanks a lot girls.

As to which character Leo will play
On the movie forums once the rumors began that Leo was attached most thought he would be police agent Brock Vond who is in pursuit of Zoyd & his daughter
But with Sean’s casting , I think Leo will be Zoyd Wheeler who has teenage daughter Prairie from when he was married to Frenesi Gates ( Regina Hall ) . And to complicate matters Brock will
, also, have a relationship with Frenesi
Hummm...then I think my guesses were wrong. That's fine too, as long as we get the chance to see him on a movie soon again.🤗 Tks dear for the clarification.

Means he would play the "bad guy" again... at least in the book this Vond guy seems some sort of villain.
Yes, and I heard this Brock is a handsome guy in the book, soooo...I don't think Sean Penn would be playing him, sorry not sorry. But I may be truly wrong too!🤭
-
Any guesses whose character Leo may be playing in Vineland? I have a feeling this is the movie.
Let me be the first one here, Brock Vond?🤣 Gosh, I need to get used to hese names.

Oh, hence we have an explanation for the man bun 🤭. So the movie is set in 1984? Interesting...judging by their outfit in those pics, I thought it was set in recent times. I guess I'm confused now.🤣
