With his disturbing, mercurial performance as a red-pilled teenage boy in Netflix drama Adolescence, Owen Cooper gave rise to one of the year’s most talked-about cultural moments and became the youngest ever male actor to win an Emmy award. Now, the 15-year-old’s turn as a young Heathcliffe in Emerald Fennel’s hotly anticipated – if controversial – adaptation of Wuthering Heights, out on Valentine’s Day next year.

In the video above, filmed on-set for his Dazed cover story, Cooper lounges on a hotel bed and talks Creme Eggs, Toy Story, Liverpool FC, how he got into acting, what it was like working with Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie, the ‘67’ meme, and why you should never touch the minibar.

This story is taken from the winter 2025 issue of Dazed, which is on sale internationally from December 5. Pre-order a copy of the magazine here.
