#Love simon cast blue movie#

Don’t worry, everyone, the same character is Blue. The ending, while satisfying, was changed from the book.The Elliot Smith T-shirt is cut out altogether.Changing the musical from Oliver! to Cabaret.Changing the email address that Simon uses.Cutting out Alice, Simon’s older sister, from the story.That plot line in the book never made sense to me anyway. Nora is into cooking instead of in a secret band with Leah.Adding the character of Ethan as an already out teen gives Simon someone to commiserate with.Kudos to the casting department for the movie.Ĭomparing the book to the movie, there are a number of changes made, some I liked others, not so much. Simon’s great friends (Katherine Langford, Alexandra Shipp, and and Jorge Lendeborg Jr.) are supportive and accepting. Like Simon, I wouldn’t be able to pick between the potential Blue’s (Keiynan Lonsdale, Miles Heizer, and Joey Pollari), either. The parents we wished for as teens (Jennifer Garner and Josh Duhamel). The secondary cast is just as impressive. I can’t imagine any other actor in this role. He’s charming and emotionally vulnerable throughout the movie. Maybe it’s because I read the book a few weeks ago and I’ve been inundated with posters and trailers for this movie, but Nick really embodies Simon for me. We’ve know Nick from Melissa and Joey, The Fifth Wave, and even Jurassic Park.
