Josh is only four years younger than Leonardo di Caprio, but looks twenty years younger.

I remember being rather disappointed with the Virgin Suicides. It was a mystery movie without the mystery. The sisters were suppose to be intriguing and mesmerizing, but ended up being rather forgettable. Not all of them were virgins either, so the title of the movie itself is a lie.

Maybe the book was better? 🧐

Josh is back.

It’s cool that he shares the same birthday as Justin Bartha(born on the same day) and the late Robin Williams.

Wish they let him talk more about Penny Dreadful. The show was so different and played with all these classic monster characters so well.

To all the 35yr olds and up(I’m 38) we gotta say Thank you for actually posting this one because we as an audience who grew up knowing that Josh Harnett would become an awesome actor and seeing him in Oppenheimer and now the new M. Night film is like a fresh breath of new air. Seeing him as a respectable classy actor then and now is a rare class act we get to see nowadays.

PS: my favorite film 🎥 of his is “Wicker Park” what’s yours and why??

Josh Hartnett is a pleasure to watch on screen, he always manages to come off as genuinely humane and relatable. I can’t wait to see Trap on friday, I think he’s the perfect casting for the role.

Also, Penny Dreadful is extremely underrated. Go watch it if you haven’t!

I’m just a few years younger than Josh, and been a fan since The Faculty and H20. Glad he decided to come out of semi-retirement. Black Mirror, Oppenheimer and Trap? Yes, please.
