10 Reasons to Follow Goofy Heartthrob Ansel Elgort In 2017
You may recognize the 23-year-old actor Ansel Elgort from his roles in the John Green novel adaptations, The Fault is in Our Stars and Paper Towns (alongside Cara Delevingne), as well as the Divergent series. He’s also got a notorious music video floating around the internet, but we’ll sweep that one under the rug since today is his birthday. You may also be familiar with the work of his famous fashion photographer father, Arthur Elgort, or perhaps one of his creative siblings, but by the end of 2017, all eyes are going to be on Ansel because his new film, Baby Driver, is the talk of SXSW. Elgort plays the lead character, a getaway driver named Baby, with actress Lily James as his love interest and Jon Hamm as his antagonist. It’s surely his most serious role to date, but if you follow Elgort on Instagram, you’ll learn that he’s a heartthrob goofball in real life. Here are 10 other reasons why you should do that right now.
