The Superbad star has been hitting the headlines due to controversial leaked text messages, but there might be more to uncover than we thought.
Jonah Hill, best known for his roles in comedy films like Superbad and 21 Jump Street, has garnered a huge following thanks to his talent and ability to make people laugh with true finesse. Lately, however, Hill has been hitting the headlines for not-so-funny reasons.
His ex-girlfriend, Sarah Brady, recently unveiled a series of texts she alleges she received from the actor, attempting to expose his emotionally abusive behavior. While many may be surprised by this, there are actually three other controversies involving Jonah Hill that happened long before those texts.
3. Hill’s Association With James Franco
It's no secret the two comedic heavyweights are friends in real life. However, after accusations of hitting on teens surfaced against Franco and facing a lawsuit over alleged acting-school exploits, Hill's friendship with his former co-star is a cause for concern. And considering the fact that Franco himself was caught messaging a 17-year-old girl, there's clearly a recurring issue here when it comes to messaging women.
2. Homophobic Slur
In 2014, Hill found himself at the center of controversy when he was filmed using a homophobic slur. The incident occurred when a paparazzo mocked Hill's floral print shorts. In a video capturing the encounter, the actor can be heard responding with an offensive remark: 'Suck my d***, you f*****!' This comment deeply offended a lot of people and understandably drew criticism towards Hill.
1. He’s Difficult to Work With
While the Don't Look Up actor may be hilarious on the big screen, he's not so easy to work with behind the scenes. In a 2019 appearance on First We Feast, co-star and friend Seth Rogen was asked a multiple-choice question about which actor was the most difficult to work with and why. Before the host could even offer the options to pick from, Seth answered immediately, with zero hesitation: 'Jonah Hill.' Taking into account that they've collaborated closely on many projects, Rogen's insights certainly have merit.
Ultimately, there are many moving parts off-camera and behind the screens. It's crucial to acknowledge that people are not perfect, and we all make mistakes that often stem from personal trauma in one way or another. While the recent leaked texts, along with the past controversies, paint a rather troubling picture of Jonah Hill's behavior, it's essential to approach the situation with consideration.
