My Take
Jacob Elordi could have stayed a streaming heartthrob forever — The Kissing Booth guaranteed him that lane. What earns my respect is how deliberately he has walked away from it, using Euphoria's menacing Nate Jacobs to prove range, then moving into Frankenstein and Wuthering Heights, material that punishes pretty faces that cannot act. An Academy Award nomination this early in his career confirms the bet is paying off. At 196 centimeters with matinee-idol looks, he understands his physicality is a tool, not the performance itself. He belongs to that strong Australian lineage of actors who treat Hollywood as a workplace rather than a destination, and I expect a long, interesting filmography.
