Tye Sheridan is being wasted
6 November 2023
Mud was 13 years ago now, and we still haven't gotten a movie as good as that with Tye Sheridan in it since. I still think he should have been nominated for an Oscar for his acting in that.

Tye showed his great acting potential in Mud, as he made our hearts flutter and our eyes well up, and in an interview he gave about the movie around the time of its release, he said he wants to make good decisions regarding the movies he's in. But so far, they've all been mediocre or just plain bad. It's like he's been trapped in bad movies while we're all increasingly frustrated with how much he's being wasted. Maybe he should ask Matthew McConaughey for help in reinvigorating his career in a similar way to how Matthew did for himself, that started with Mud.

Get a different agent perhaps, or just get roles in movies with Joaquin Phoenix, Leo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, etc.

I want to see Tye in roles similar to Ben Foster in 3:10 to Yuma and Hell or High Water (visceral, angry, unstable, explosive, decisive), or Elijah Wood in LOTR (expressive, ranged).

It's just very sad how the last good movie Tye was in was in 2012, and the quality of his movies have been in the doldrums ever since.

Please give us the Tye Sheridan we are all craving and know is there, rather than continuing just gliding along in mediocrity...
