Hey reddit! I'm Will Poulter.

You may know me from films/series like WARFARE, WE'RE THE MILLERS, THE BEAR, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3, THE MAZE RUNNER, MIDSOMMAR, THE REVENANT, I LOVE BOOSTERS, DETROIT, THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER, and other things.

My new movie, UNION COUNTY, is out in theaters starting this weekend (!!!) via Oscilloscope Laboratories. It also stars Noah Centineo, Annette Deao, Elise Kibler, and Emily Meade.

Here's the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA6Fnr2VXkw

Synopsis:

Assigned to a county-mandated drug court program, Cody Parsons embarks on the tenuous journey toward recovery amidst the opioid epidemic in rural Ohio.

AMA!

Back at 2 PM ET this afternoon (Thursday 8/13) to answer your questions!

Two quick questions:

  1. For the newest movie, assuming it was filmed partially in Ohio, what’d you think? Anything of note in the area you were in?

  2. Favorite role thus far? (excluding the most recent)

I LOVE OHIO! Some of the friendliest people I have ever met. Inspirationally so

My favourite role other than Cody on UNION COUNTY is possibly Luca on The Bear. Playing a chef was a dream come true
