Andrew Scott Says ‘Tortured Man Club’ Group Chat With Taylor Swift’s Ex Joe Alwyn Is No Longer Active
Andrew Scott says the 'Tortured Man Club' group chat with Taylor Swift's ex Joe Alwyn is done.
Earlier this year, fans speculated that Taylor Swift ‘s The Tortured Poets Department got its title inspiration from ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn ‘s group chat with fellow actors Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal, aka “The Tortured Man Club.” And while the jury is still out on whether or not that’s true, Scott did recently set the record straight about their text thread, which apparently never lasted long in the first place. The Ripley star also explained why they gave their convo such a melancholy name, noting that the chat was created just as Alwyn had been cast as the solemn Nick Conway in Hulu’s adaptation of Sally Rooney’s Conversations With Friends. “I think she is just a force of nature, just an extraordinary human,” he added, noting that his favorite track on the LP is “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.” “This album is really, really amazing.”
