🎬 It’s Official. WEAPONS is Here.
Now playing in theaters and IMAX.

I’m proud to be a part of this powerful new film #WEAPONS @weaponsmovie ,written and directed by the brilliant Zach Cregger @zcregger . His storytelling, leadership, and vision created an experience I’ll never forget. It was an honor to help bring his words to life.

And working alongside the legendary @joshbrolin . It was great working with you brother! Your work was a true masterclass.

Big thanks to @kredcasting (Kris Redding) for believing in me and opening the door to this moment. I’m truly grateful.

This is more than a role. It’s a milestone. One of those moments you hold onto and let fuel you forward. Grateful to every casting director, my team (my agents and coach) who helped me get here. And to my future self…we’re not done yet.

Catch WEAPONS now in theaters.
We showed up for this one.
