Speaking with Nylon, Thomas opened up about his role in the movie.

“It’s the best role that I’ve ever had the opportunity to play. I’ve read everything out there, every coming-of-age movie I’ve probably auditioned for,” he shared. “This one felt different, and then when Alfonso [Gomez-Rejon, director] got on board, I was like okay, this is going to be something special. I knew he wasn’t going to make a teen movie, that it was going to be something bigger than that.”

Me And Earl And The Dying Girl is out in theaters TODAY!

FYI: Olivia wore a Christopher Kane dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, AS29 jewels and a Corto Moltedo clutch.
