Nicholas Hoult Eight Times


Apparently today is the 23rd anniversary of About a Boy (according to EW) so I will go ahead and post this new photoshoot of that movie's breakout, the boy himself, Nicholas Hoult. Of course Nicky was only 12 when that movie was made so we didn't know for several years that he'd become the dreamboat movie star he went on to become -- never underestimate the gawky weird kids! I should actually re-watch About a Boy, I haven't seen it in a very very long time -- aww remember when him and Toni Collette reunited for that Clint Eastwood movie that nobody saw last year? That was a sweet moment. Have him and Hugh Grant worked together since? I don't feel like looking that up so feel free to tell me if so. Anyway this new shoot is for Arena Homme+ magazine and dropped yesterday, hit the jump for the entirety (with a little surprise at the bottom)...





And then there is this photo, via the photographer:

I assume that the photo seen soaking in the bath there will be one that ends up in the final magazine spread and not this BTS photo of it being processed. But we only have this version as of right now and I had to include it because 1) the photo in the bath is hot and 2) I'm super amused by all the gradations of armpittery seen on the side of the bath there. Like, they're working intensely to get them pits just right, haha! Priorities! But here is a zoom in on the actual photo, until we (hopefully) get a better version:
