American Psycho fans are furious about Austin Butler being cast as Patrick Bateman. They doubt that the actor will pull off the role.
Fans raised questions about Butler’s infamous performance in the Elvis Presley biopic. “They saw Austin portray Elvis and made him American Psycho? We’re all in danger.” “I hope this idea fails. I’m not ready to see Austin as Patrick Bateman”, “Who decided that Butler would star in American Psycho, which doesn’t even need a remake? There were better options!” – someone else said.
Austin Butler, 33, was officially cast as the serial killer played by Christian Bale more than 20 years ago.
We previously wrote that Jacob Elordi was in contention for the iconic role. Luca Guadagnino, the director of the new film adaptation, said that the film will not be a remake of its predecessor, but will be an independent adaptation of the novel by author and screenwriter Bret Easton Ellis.
The original American Psycho movie was released in 2000. The main roles were played by Christian Bale, Willem Dafoe, Josh Lucas, Reese Witherspoon, Cara Seymour and others.
