Jacob Elordi Says He Hit a New 'Level of Love' While Losing Weight for Role


‘Euphoria’ star Jacob Elordi detailed what it was like to lose weight for his role in ‘Narrow Road to the Deep North’

In the upcoming Amazon Prime series The Narrow Road to the Deep North, directed by Justin Kurzel, Elordi, 27, plays a prisoner of war – a role that required the Euphoria actor to shed more than a few pounds. The Narrow Road to the Deep North — based on Richard Flanagan’s novel of the same name — follows medical officer Dorrigo Evans (Elordi), a “Japanese prisoner of war forced to work on the Thai-Burma railway,” according to the series’ official synopsis. While following his life “over the span of several decades as he moves from being a soldier to a prisoner, to returned war hero, to esteemed surgeon and reluctant celebrity,” the series also shows how the character is “haunted by the memory of his affair with his uncle’s wife, Amy ( Odessa Young).”
