You’d have to practically be living under a rock to not know the name Nicholas Galitzine. The actor is everywhere.
While we loved him in Purple Hearts the most (and yes, we know was good in other stuff too), we’re definitely excited to see him in the upcoming The Idea of You. The actor plays the lead of a boy band, August Moon. His characters name is Hayes Campbell.
The actor was on on SiriusXm’s The Spotlight with Jessica Shaw and spoke about filming the Coachella scenes in the movie.
I mean, we did these Coachella scenes in front of about 500 extras, which is a lot, but, you know, compared to these actual audiences of 60,000 or whatever is nothing and still, I mean, it was such a joy, nerve-wracking, fulfilled a lot of childhood dreams. I think we all did, you know, doing that, but I mean, it’s such a different beast to being an actor, you know,” he said. You do get to see a brief preview of those scene in the trailer.
He went on to say, “The first take I was just completely breaking it and then the second take I was, you know, still a little bit and then the third, we just started really getting into it and interacting with the audience, and there was a sort of a section where I have to kind of jump down and I’m getting my shirt pulled out and everything and it was very realistic.”
We’re wondering if that’s scary of kind of exciting. We know we have read many of times that it’s different for everyone. But for Nicholas?
“I had so much fun doing it, honestly. I think it very much solidified a want to do more of that in my own capacity, which is cool.”
He does have an amazing voice. Hear it below in the first song from August Moon, Dance Before We Walk. The video is below.
