Let’s get real here – Crazy Rich Asians is an insanely amazing film that we need more of asap – but there was something missing and his name is Ross Butler.
Turns out though, the 13 Reasons Why actor actually did audition for the flick, but here’s why he wasn’t cast in it: he was too young!
“I wish [I was in it]! I actually had read for the lead role,” Ross shared with Vulture in an interview. “But I think I was just too young. I mean, I was still playing a teenager so I can’t be a professor at a college.”
He adds, “I don’t think I was anywhere close [to being cast] because I was still playing a 16-year-old! But I figured I’d read for it anyway and see what happens.”
And although he’s not in the movie, Ross knows the importance of the film.
“It’s gonna show people that there is a culture that wants to see this type of story.”
Crazy Rich Asians is out in theaters now.
Ross Butler, Brandon Flynn, and Timothy Granaderos are showing off their ripped bodies!
The 13 Reasons Why co-stars hit the gym together ahead of starting work on the upcoming third season and shared a shirtless photo to commemorate.
“Have never felt so small and proud at the same time. 🦎,” Brandon captioned the pic. Check it out below!
Ross also shared the photo and called out some of their other co-stars for not joining them for the workout.
“First workout of the season with the #13ReasonsWhy GANG. Expect more of these. WHERE YA AT: @JustinPrentice @ChristianLN0821 @milesdheizer @AlishaBoe @dylanminnette @devindruid @annewinters,” he wrote.
In case you missed it, the cast of 13 Reasons Why just got some huge pay raises for the third season.

Ross Butler is featured in Rogue Magazine‘s Spring/Summer Issue N°9, out now.
Here’s what the 28-year-old 13 Reasons Why star had to say…
On his 13 Reasons Why character: “I put a lot of myself in Zach, he’s this hopeless romantic and sensitive guy, and you’re going to see that. That’s what I love about him, he’s not just this jock, but he struggles with being popular and if he wants to follow his heart. One of my favorite parts about Zach is that he’s not defined by his race.”
On representing the Asian American community: “I am not afraid to stand up and represent who I am. I also want to be that role model for the next generation who can teach these young Asian American boys and girls that they can do the same thing and not buy into these stereotypes. I want to teach them that they can be whoever they want to be.”
On buying into stereotypes growing up: “Growing up I did everything to avoid it [his Asian heritage] and then it evolved into me buying into the jokes and even making the jokes myself. It was all this fake owning it, buying into the stereotypes. It was something I did to overcompensate, but it really stemmed from an insecurity.”
