Am I the only one...

Who completely forgets about his role on Skins? I read an interview with him really recently, (can't remember who with, will search news feed) and it was really insightful. He talked about fame, Hollywood, his first role and how his mother pushed him into skins. I'm really glad he has found the moderate but not insignificant success he has. I have a lot of respect for him and his intelligence now. He brings amazing depth, energy and charm to his characters. I'm also gushing because I just saw Second Best Marigold Hotel and I loved him in it. He's really a wonderful kid! I think we could all marry a boy like Sonny.

Yes I have a crush.

I never saw skins but I definitely agree with your assessment of his career. He seems like he could easily break out into an even bigger status, very talented actor.

Thanks, Yeah! I feel like he's going to be that actor who is only known for 1 role but has this cult fan base who love him for his singular talents in other films. Which is a great fan base to have, fans who love you for your abilities, and not just your part in a wider film. Anyway, he's still only young and although his credits are few, they're something to behold for such a young star. I'm sure he's not done yet.
