Joe Jonas Discusses Devotion, Sophie Turner, & More With New York Post
Joe Jonas sat down with New York Post while out promoting his new film, Devotion. The actor/singer stars alongside Jonathan Majors and Glen Powell in this new war film. Highlights from his interview are below.
On returning to acting: “Acting is a huge passion of mine. When I was younger, I was doing acting, but it’s been years. Being able to immerse yourself in a character and surround yourself with great actors is always something I loved, but I really didn’t have the time to say, ‘Great, yeah, that sounds awesome. So when’s your film? OK, I don’t know where I’m gonna be at that point.'”
On turning to wife Sophie Turner for acting advice: “She’s the most honest, toughest critic I have. We want each other to kind of go on our own journey when it comes to immersing ourselves in characters and roles, but I would read every scene with her … Even if I feel like, ‘Cool, that was good,’ she’ll be like, ‘Hmmm, you can probably do more work.’ But just as an inspiration, it’s incredible that I’m in the same household with such a brilliant actress.”
On raising his family in Miami: “People think that all there is is nightclubs and hot spots and, like, crazy wild beaches. There is that, of course, but there are also beautiful areas and quiet areas. And then obviously, you know, the plus of the weather, being by the bluest water.”
