Douglas Booth for VMan


Douglas Booth and his luscious lips graces the cover of VMan magazine. The Romeo & Juliet actor is photographed by legendary photographer Bruce Weber.


Here is what the 20-year-old had to share with VMan.
On his good looks
It very quickly isn’t flattering to be known only for the way you look. It’s just uninteresting if that’s all people want to talk about. I don’t necessarily want to hear about my talent or my greatness as an actor. You can say I’m sh-t, if you think so. But make it about something I do. The grittier, the dirtier, the worse I can look, the happier I am. It takes the pressure off.

We met when he was 15 and I remember looking at him and thinking he was offensively attractive. And it’s just gotten worse from there.

On overcoming nerves about playing Romeo
[I thought] f-ck it, they’re choosing me because I can bring something fresh to it. Something in-the-moment and real, which is the spirit of Romeo, isn’t it?
