From playing Club Rep in The Inbetweeners movie to the star of Divergent, The White Lotus, The Gentlemen, and now action thriller Fuze (out in cinemas now) — Theo James has quietly won us all over. In this chat with Josh, Theo opens up about the pressure of being a leading man in an industry obsessed with physicality, and why the rise of the manosphere worries him deeply. He reflects on a culture increasingly defined by money and status over relationships and morality — and what that means for young men today. He also gets candid about his short-lived music career, his UN Ambassador work with refugees, and fighting with Anthony Hopkins.
