Miles Teller Says a Mishandled Esquire Profile Drove Him Away From Magazine Interviews
Miles Teller recounts a 2015 Esquire profile that opened by asking if he was “a dick,” calling the piece mishandled and misquoted and leading him to step away from non-on-camera profiles. He notes the disconnect between how he sees himself and how the article portrayed him, and says the experience made him skeptical of magazine interviews aimed at clicks. He has since done only a few interviews for projects like Eternity and is promoting Paper Tiger, insisting on authentic portrayals and on-camera conversations when possible.
