Nicholas Galitzine Dismisses Harry Styles Connection In The Idea Of You
Nicholas Galitzine is enjoying the success of his latest movie, The Idea of You, which was released on Prime Video on May 2. In the romantic comedy, the actor portrays Hayes Campbell, a fictional musician. In an interview with People, Nicholas denied any connection between his character and singer Harry Styles, saying Hayes is ‘his own character’.
In the conversation, Nicholas talked about all of the comparisons between his character and singer Harry Styles, saying, “I like to distance myself from that comparison because I think Hayes is his own character and has his own struggles and wants and tastes, even in who he is as a musician.”
The actor added, “We took tons of different references. I think the boy band as a whole was an amalgam of a lot of different artists and groups. I’d love people to come to watch the movie with an open mind and embrace Hayes and August Moon, and maybe become fans of August Moon individually as well. I mean, there’s some really, really catchy songs in the movie.”
The Idea of You is based on Robinne Lee’s 2017 book. The adaption follows the story of a romance between Hayes, a pop sensation from the boy band August Moon, and Solène, a 40-year-old divorcée portrayed by Anne Hathaway.
