More importantly, he's box office poison.

Which really does lend credibility to the idea that he either has some Epstein-style blackmail on some influential people in Hollywood and/or he's still providing them with unsavory, or illegal, experiences.

He's rich. He produced tron so he got to say he was the lead in it. Rich people suck.

This is the genuinely such an agonizing flip side to it like if we are gonna employ a sex criminal at least get an actor who isnt total ass and ruins every movie he is in. Dude is allergic to emotion, wooden, and sucks to work with. It makes no sense. There are so many pervs in hollywood I know at least one of them has to be able to act better than this asshole

He’s got to be one of them that traffics or supplies women to the rest.

His performance, if you can even stand degrading other actors and actresses by using the term with his name attached to it, in Bladerunner 2049 was a look inside his brain. That was Jared in 2049, not some tech overlord he was pretending to be.

He peaked as Jordan Catalano in My So-Called Life, an intellectually stunted, emotionally empty symbol of naive adolescent desire. For some reason, he was really able to sink into that role.

I think he's a repulsive person, but in my opinion he's been electric in several roles, like Requiem and Panic Room.
