Skylar Astin for August Man


Pitch Perfect's Skylar Astin reminds us why he's the newest member of our celeb crush club in the October issue of August Man magazine.


Here’s what the 25-year-old actor had to share with August Man.
On his character in Pitch Perfect
Jesse is a freshmen in college that has his heart on his sleeve. He is comfortable in his own skin and is open to what college life has to offer: namely his co-worker Becca (Anna Kendrick) and joining the all-male, rock star a cappella group ‘Barden Treblemakers.’ 
On how he prepares for a role
I like to be prepared as possible. The rehearsal process for TV and film generally isn’t comparable to stage so a lot of the preparation rests on your shoulders. Every character requires a different approach. Yet some preparations can be fun. For example, I am about to start film something where I play a bartender so I became certified on my own. Now I can say that. That’s pretty cool. 
On his style
I like to look like I accidentally put myself together really well. Mixing up something that is comfortable like a vintage bowling shirt with good fitting Levis is a look I frequent. Yet I try to adapt to wherever I am going style-wise.
