    Fun fact...
    Jonah in the Bible is someone who sails away and gets in trouble with a sea creature.
    Perfect casting, huh?

    It’s amazing to know that an actor on the other hand is also a deep thinker who is interested in and completed the study of theology and religion. I think that's very rare and fascinating. I wish him continued success and continue to inspire his fans to spread goodness for humanity ❤️

    I still remember the backlash he received after being casted as Prince Eric. Many preferred Henry Cavill, Shawn Mendes, Matt Bomer and even Harry Styles. I'm glad they found him. He is the perfect Prince Eric and by far the best live action prince we ever had! ❤

      Wow, there was backlash?? He’s a fantastic actor! He’s actually one of the reasons I really wanted to see the new film, because he did such a tremendous job in the movie, “Song of Names”. (First thing I ever saw him in - and boy did one of his scenes have me sobbing, it was so heartbreaking.) He’s got the acting chops and definitely deserves to be Prince Eric! 🙂

      I’m so glad he got cast as Prince Eric. Love his song! I can’t wait to see what else he does

      @@alexandrialeonora6542 Simply because he's relatively unknown. Same with Halle (apart from other stuff.) Fans wanted someone famous, but look at the movie! Casting new faces gives us a new flavor.

      I think they all go through that if ever they get an iconic role and they aren't big household names. I can surely remember the backlash Henry Cavill got when he was first casted as Superman. And now everyone aches for him. I think Jonah is amazing. Thank god Harry Styles turned down the role.

    I wish there were more people like him. He seems like someone you could have a meaningful conversation about anything. As a young person myself, there aren’t a lot of people within my age group who you can have a meaningful and fulfilling conversation with.

      I hear you! I’m like you as well. Although probably not as young as you, cuz i’m already 28. But yeah i’ve always been this way ever since I was a teenager. I’ve always been mentally and emotionally mature for my age, and let me tell you how challenging it was finding like-minded friends in highschool! But I thank God I found them! I’m not sure if my friends being from an Asian culture as well, like me, has made it easier for us to come together? But I find people from different culture who didn’t grew up in the West have the capacity to have a meaningful conversation with.
      Anyway, I pray u find ur crowd. God bless! 💕
