Is that Cate Blanchett as Bob Dylan in I’m Not There? Nope, it’s Stranger Things wunderkind (and previous Dazed cover star) Finn Wolfhard in a Saint Laurent campaign.
Posing in the arty black and white, rock ‘n’ roll style that has long been a trademark of the brand, the actor strikes a series of poses in some dark shades, skinny tailoring, and cords and a varsity-esque leather jacket.
Where Hedi Slimane’s YSL was all about musicians, it seems Anthony Vaccarello is focussing more on actors: Wolfhard joins the likes of Vincent Gallo (daddy) and Keanu Reeves (baby), both of whom have recently featured in ads. The new menswear collection is also heading to Hollywood, with a show set for LA on June 6.
So who’s next? If you’re listening AV, give the people what they want: Andrew Scott, better known as Fleabag’s Hot Priest.
