Having met Jacob since starring in upcoming movie Wuthering Heights, Owen has lifted the lid on what he is really like.
Speaking to i-D about his new role, Owen said that Jacob is “such a nice guy”.
“My family can say the same as well,” he added.
Also in his chat with the outlet, Owen spoke about working on the set of Netflix’s Adolescence.
“I was shocked, before acting and stuff, I just thought nobody [on set] would want to speak to me,” he said.
“But as soon as I got onto the set of Adolescence, I realised I was surrounded by the right people.”
Adolescence has received rave reviews on social media since it dropped onto Netflix.
“#Adolescence is a masterpiece. But the fact that each episode was filmed in one take. I cant wrap my mind around it,” said one person on X.
Another person added: “#Adolescence on @netflix is so good. For being 4 episodes, one hour each, each episode one continuous, one-take shot, acting on point AND with a message that every parent (and adult male for that matter) should take heed in – required viewing. 10/10 would recommend.”
While a third wrote: “The acting in adolescence is so insane, genuinely soo mad they shot every episode in one take. British actors / actresses stay on top.”
All four episodes of Adolescence are available to watch now on Netflix.
