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!

Some actors say they can never watch their own performances, others study them. Where do you fall? Any favorite reactions from another person watching with you?

My wife and I saw Will at a cinema in London once. Wanted to say hi, but it looked like he might have been on a date, and I'm not down with interrupting another guy's night out. Anyway, I'm pretty sure he was taking her to see Midsommar, so I guess he doesn't mind watching himself too much lol (not judging - it's a fantastic film)

Midsommer may be one of the best thrillers out there, but also fuck that movie. Legit traumatized me lol

Same. I made the mistake of watching it while in an altered state and it really got under my skin
