The Miles Teller-starring Whiplash premiered in the United States on January 16, 2014. The now-infamous Esquire interview where he showed an, um ... different side of his personality dropped on August 5, 2015. You could argue that as a celebrity, Miles Teller hasn’t really been “likable” since that date.
Miles Teller getting excited about a Rhys Hoskins home run is the most likable Miles Teller has been in years
He was so excited he couldn’t contain himself.
I’m not here to argue about Miles Teller’s likability though — to each their own, and he’s still a good actor regardless of his more abrasive tendencies. What I’m here to do is show you an extremely likable video of Teller in this, the year 2018.
Rhys Hoskins hit a home run during Wednesday night’s Phillies-Yankees game and Teller went WILD.
Teller’s Philadelphia sports loyalty is well-documented at this point, and he’s an ardent supporter of the Eagles and Phillies. The look on his face here is one thing, the pure joy and excitement over a regular season home run makes him extremely endearing. It would be a very “stars they’re just like us!” moment if it was just the smile on display.
But the jumping up and down is the true star of this clip, because it’s something that people only really do when they’re at a game and spontaneously excited. Jumping up and down for something besides marriage or a pregnancy announcement would seem normal, but besides that it’s pretty much sports and that’s it.
This is true, uninhibited excitement. Sports does that to people, even celebrities who might not seem that likable otherwise.
