Get ready for more Jacob Elordi on your screens because he’s just booked a role on a huge new TV show.
If you haven’t watched The Kissing Booth on Netflix yet, then you probably haven’t had time to fall in love with Australian actor and all round legend, Jacob Elordi. Jacob, who only has a handful of on-screen roles to his name so far, shot to internet stardom after starring in the Netflix teen romcom alongside his real life girlfriend Joey King and now it looks like we’re about to be seeing even more of him.
Yep, get ready for a whooole lot more Jacob screen-time because he’s just been cast in a brand new HBO show alongside side some very famous people and it’s a preeeeetty huge deal.
Jacob will be starring in HBO’s new show called ‘Euphoria’, an adaptation of the Israeli series of the same name. It’s described as the story of drugs, sex, identity, trauma, social media, love and friendship all told by a lying, drug addicted 17-year-old girl named Rue. Sounds spicy, right?
Zendaya has been cast as the lead role of Rue alongside a cast of 11 other huge stars. The pilot episode will also feature: Maude Apatow as Lexi, Brian “Astro” Bradley as McKay, Angus Cloud as Fezco, Eric Dane as Cal, Alexa Demie as Maddy, Barbie Ferreira as Kat, Nika King as Leslie, Storm Reid as Gia, Hunter Schafer as Jules, Sydney Sweeney as Cassie and of course, Jacob Elordi as Nate.
No other details about his – or anyone else’s – character have been released just yet. All the character names have been changed from the original version so it’s unclear who is playing who, or if the same characters will be used in the US adaptation at all.
The original series ran from 2012-2013 and only had 10 episodes. So far, HBO has only ordered the pilot episode of the series. If it does well, it could be picked up for a full season which means more Zendaya and a LOT more Jacob Elordi.

Jacob Elordi From ‘The Kissing Booth’ Will Star In A Terrifying New Horror Film
The Mortuary Collection looks set to be one of this year’s must-see movies…
Jacob Elordi may be best known for his starring role in The Kissing Booth and his budding romance with his brilliant co-star Joey King but that could all be about to change. Not only is he going to act in a new HBO show, Euphoria, with living legend Zendaya, but he is also going to front a new horror film called The Mortuary Collection.
Written and directed by scary movie king Ryan Spindell, The Mortuary Collection tells the tale of a young girl who stumbles across a mortuary and soon finds herself the subject of a world of horror. To make things even more exciting, it apparently taps into four major horror sub genres: slasher, monster, ghost and thriller.
On top of that The Mortuary Collection is due to come out at some point later this year. In other words, we are going to be blessed with a brand new Jacob Elordi film in a matter of mere months. It’s okay. We’re hyperventilating too.
Jacob will play the role of Jake in the film. As it stands, little is known about his character but, considering just how gifted an actor Jake is, we imagine that his performance will be nothing short of amazing. If it’s anywhere near as good as his one in The Kissing Booth, we’re in for a treat.
Jacob will star alongside other talents such as Barak Hardely (Master of None), Brennan Murray (Jane the Virgin) and Emma Horvath (Like.Share.Follow.) in the highly anticipated new feature. A trailer is yet to be released for it but we will be sure to update you as soon as it does.
We cannot wait to see it and find out what else Jacob stars in next.

Joey King, Jacob Elordi, and Joel Courtney of The Kissing Booth kiss random objects like a hairless cat, a salt lamp, sushi and each other. This is such a cute and fun video, enjoy!
Welcome to my new little fansite dedicated to newcomer Australian actor Jacob Elordi. Jacob can currently be seen on the new Netflix Original film The Kissing Booth as well as the Swinging Safari which was released earlier this year.
I am not Jacob nor am I associated with him in any way. I am just a fangirl. I wanted to make this little online fansite for his fans (myself included!) to have a place to fan about him. My aim is to make this fansite informative and comprehensive while respecting Jacob (and Joey’s) privacy. Take a minute and browse around the site’s content and growing gallery.
I hope you like the site and be sure to follow me on twitter for site news, updates, and photos, on your feed.
