Griffin Gluck Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Griffin Gluck is opening up about his latest role in the upcoming comedy Why Him?!

The 16-year-old actor, who you probably recognize from Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life and Red Band Society, stars in the film about an overprotective but loving dad (Bryan Cranston) who visits his daughter (Zoey Deutch) at Stanford with his family.

They meet his biggest nightmare: her well-meaning but socially awkward Silicon Valley billionaire boyfriend, Laird (James Franco).

Griffin stars as Scotty, Stephanie’s brother. We got an exclusive still from the movie for you to check out too!

“I was expecting to be more starstruck than I actually was,” Griffin told us about working with the cast. “I got super nervous going up to meet them but as soon as I introduced myself they were super nice and we all connected and became really comfortable with each other.”

Check out the rest of our interview below! Why Him? hits theaters on Christmas Day!

JJJ: Tell us about Scotty! Where does he fit into the family dynamic?

Griffin Gluck: Scotty is Stephanie’s little brother. I like to think of Scotty as the comic relief of the family, especially when he shouldn’t be. He is always doing something, whether it’s planning meetings for his dads company, or goofing off. He’s a really smart kid that just wants to impress people.

JJJ: What made you interested in this role in particular?

GG: Well, I got to work with some pretty incredible people, but this was kind of a dream role for me. From being able to play such a funny character to being able to do the things I got to do, how could I not have loved it?
