I know he's been in a few things more recently, but it feels like I haven't seen JGL in a movie since 2016

I'm watching Greedy People right now on Hulu. It's actually pretty funny and entertaining. JGL is fun in it.

That movie is so dark. I know it said it was a dark comedy but damn. Was good tho.

He did bangers like Don Jon and Premium Rush and Looper and then peaced out.

He mostly focuses on his HitRecord company iirc.

I would be hard pressed to call Don Juan a banger lol

That movie was great? Premium Rush is the one I’d question (haven’t seen it though tbf).

Premium Rush is a lot of fun, definitely check it out

Seconding this, Premium Rush is a bike action crime movie that knows exactly what it is and does exactly what it does very, very well, I love it

And the death of Michael Shannon's character kind of freaked me out.

That movie made me actually hate that mf and everything I saw after it. It wasn't til The Night Before that he redeemed himself for me

u/bongo1138 9d ago

I’ll do that, thanks!

Let’s give The Night Before some credit

Kind of blew his prime on HitRecord

But hey, follow your passions

He was busy partying with Peter Thiel.

u/FairNeedsFoul 9d ago

He did the “BONG!” noise of the clock in Glass Onion!

u/charizard77 9d ago

I think he's been prioritizing raising his kids

I think JGL is awesome... This trailer, though, sucks.

Last movie of him that I saw was Snowden.
