RJ Cyler Latest News, Photos, and Videos

RJ Cyler is ready for the world to see Sierra Burgess is a Loser already.

The 23-year-old actor plays Dan, Sierra’s only friend, in the new Netflix film.

Speaking with TV Insider, RJ opened up about the draw for him to be part of the flick and what he hopes fans will take away from it.

“Sierra Burgess is one of the movies I’m mostly excited about,” he says. “Just a story about teenagers. The roughness of how to grow up a teenager, especially nowadays.

RJ adds, “I feel like people crave for this high school feel movie or the love at a young age movie because we’ve all been there. Also, life that changes so much because the world changes so much. My high school experience is different from yours, or my mom’s or dad’s.”

“So, to be able to play that honestly with the times is very important. Sierra Burgess definitely does that.”

He continued to open up about the important issues the film will tackle, like self-worth.

“Self-worth is one of the main components of this movie,” RJ shared. “I feel like, especially with my generation, we need a grip because we have a lot of followers. Not just Instagram, Twitter, etc. People don’t think for themselves anymore, especially my generation. My generation would look at something and see that’s what someone is doing and think they should do it. That’s really the worst way to live life.”

Sierra Burgess is a Loser premieres TOMORROW, Friday, September 7th on Netflix.

After the Power Rangers movie hit theaters earlier this year, there was talk that there might be six films in total!

Star RJ Cyler recently revealed what he’d like to see with his character, the Blue Power Ranger, Billy.

“I would definitely like to see him fall in love in some way. That would be really cool,” RJ told ScreenRant.com. “Right now, everyone feels like Billy’s just gonna be this single kid for the rest of his life, and I’m like ‘No, Billy will find love someday, in his own time.’”

And as for that – SPOILER ALERT! – tease that the Green Power Ranger might be making an appearance, RJ said, “Billy still has that defensive little gate up, but he’s already let four other people into it, so it’s like he already broke that barrier. He’s going to welcome Tommy Oliver into the group, but that’s because the group are already on his side.”

“Billy will do whatever the rest of them do,” he added. “Even though it’s not something he might want to do, he always has his friends back. He’s a loyal person, so he’s like ‘Jason, if you’re cool with him, I’m cool with him. Trini, if you’re cool, I’m cool.’ He definitely would make sure that Tommy knew that Jason is our leader.”
