International actor Nicholas Galitzine confessed he is a fan of the two-time Grammy-nominated K-pop group, BTS. The actor, in an exclusive chat with News18 Showsha, opened up about the seven-member boy group and said they helped him during the making of his summer release, ‘The Idea of You’. Set to release on Amazon Prime Video, ‘The Idea of You’ features Nicholas as the member of a boy band, August Moon. The actor said that the group, comprising of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook, was one of the reference points he used to prepare for his role.
“I am a fan, I think BTS were really useful, certainly for the dance portion of the August Moon performances. They are nonchalant and they are effortless. A lot of that atmosphere was created by choreographer Dani Vitale and then just the camaraderie between the five of us (the boy band members shown in the film). They were definitely one of the references," he told us.
While the ‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ star fanboyed over BTS, his ‘The Idea of You’ co-star Anne Hathaway fangirled over Priyanka Chopra in the interview. Anne and Priyanka are the global ambassadors for a luxury brand. They met in 2022 with BLACKPINK member Lisa in Paris and then reunited in 2023 with Zendaya joining them. Although fans have loved their run-ins, we asked Anne if she and Priyanka have discussed the possibility of working together in a film.
The Devil Wears Prada star confessed that the conversation hasn’t happened yet but she is open to the idea. “We discussed a few things that night, that one hasn’t come up yet but what are we going to do, this is a great idea, how do we make this happen?" she wondered. When we suggested that they could star in a fun spy film, an excited Anne was on board immediately.
“I would love that clearly and now my brain is on fire. I’ll let you know when Priyanka and I have connected," she added.
