This has nothing to do with Dunkirk

I just thought that people over here might be interested in how looks the lad to whom Nolan entrusted the leading role in his next project, and Him is the only thing where you could catch him in.

He's a good young actor, and among all this tones of young British (and non-British) actors, he has most of the chances to become something significant in the industry. My impression of him is that he's more about heavy, dramatic, even murky roles rather than something else (I don't think he can do a comedy, actually). His look is a cross between Cillian Murphy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and his way of acting reminds of Gordon-Levitt a bit. I mean, Gordon-Levitt in his most serious moments. But Fionn also has his own charm too. In general, he has all he needs, both look and potential with support of some talent, to play the lead role in Dunkirk.

At least he now is not a dark horse for me anymore. And I even have some thoughts on what his character in Dunkirk could be.

So was tonight the premiere of HIM? because I tried looking for it online.

With the repercussions his parents’ divorce and their consequent remarriages knocking HIM’s (Fionn Whitehead) world out of balance, he finds himself struggling with adolescence, failing grades and feelings he cannot control. However, unlike other teenagers, HIM has the additional pressure of learning to master his inherited telekinetic powers.

Living in between both his parents’ houses, HIM feels ousted by their respective new families, with his Dad (James Murray) expecting twins with his new wife and a baby brother to contend with at his Mum’s (Katherine Kelly) house. However, when his stepsister Faith (Simona Brown) moves in, the fragile balance is threatened further as he develops feelings towards her.

With only his grandmother to confide in, who urges HIM to use his abilities for good rather than in anger, will HIM be able to keep his emotions – and powers – in check?

Fionn Whitehead is bored to tears being bombarded with Harry Styles intrigue and hysteria about upcoming war drama Dunkirk. Especially considering he also co-stars alongside Oscar-winning Mark Rylance and Tom Hardy in the Christopher Nolan picture. But Digital Spy went ahead and asked anyway, with the talented 19-year-old actor telling us: "Harry is a really lovely guy, he's a really down-to-earth, funny guy. And he's just a normal everyday guy I can chat with and we get on well".
"I think the hysteria - [perhaps] it should have been expected when you take a figure like that and give him a short back and sides and put him in a uniform".
"I think the focus should not be Harry Styles doing a movie, it should be on the piece in general or his ability to act. And he's great".
"I think it's got a bit silly really. The meaning has got lost somewhere along the way and people have stopped realizing there's an amazing cast - including Harry - but there's you know, the creme de la creme of actors." Fionn defended the One Direction singer from all the undeserved "hysteria" and added that he's a "great actor".
"People are putting too much emphasis on Harry being in it, but that is in no means a reflection on him," he continued."He hasn't asked for any of this. He's great, he's a good actor and a lovely guy. In terms of the media, they have put too much emphasis on this one guy instead of the piece as a whole and the ensemble as a whole."
