## Fi1m on Alden Ehrenreich

> Alden Ehrenreich is good at showing how hard a man is working to seem fine. We rate his precise timing, which makes *Fair Play* uncomfortable and gives *Cocaine Bear* some warmth, even when the writing lets him down.

In *Fair Play* (2023), Alden Ehrenreich’s Luke congratulates his partner on the promotion he expected to get, and his face catches up a fraction too late. He offers to cook. We felt the film tighten around us in that kitchen, because his effort to sound pleased made his disappointment painfully clear. Ehrenreich is particularly good at letting us see a man try to behave properly and fail. Chloe Domont gets more out of that slight delay than a speech explaining his wounded pride could have done.

The Coen brothers put that timing to work in *Hail, Caesar* (2016), his breakthrough as Hobie Doyle. Playing Han Solo in *Solo: A Star Wars Story* (2018) then put him at the centre of a franchise. The more interesting turn for us comes with the contrasting parts in *Fair Play* and *Cocaine Bear* (2023). They make his timing serve jealousy in one film and weary affection in the other.

Domont gives Luke a partner worth watching in Phoebe Dynevor’s Emily, who wants the job and wants him not to mind. Ehrenreich’s polite words keep coming while Dynevor lets us see Emily calculate what she can preserve. Their work is sharper than the film’s later insistence on deciding who the villain is. We would have preferred Domont to keep watching the two of them with the curiosity she brings to the first hour.

Elizabeth Banks gives him a less tightly written film in *Cocaine Bear*, but his Eddie, a widower who has largely given up, has someone to argue with. O’Shea Jackson Jr.’s Daveed is the friend charged with keeping him upright, and their bickering supplies most of the human warmth. Ehrenreich can make haplessness worth caring about without asking the film to become solemn. The trouble is how long Banks leaves a capable cast waiting between attacks.

*Weapons* (2025) places him among troubled adults again, as Paul, a local policeman in Zach Cregger’s horror ensemble. Editor Joe Murphy returns to scenes from different viewpoints, although the chapter rhythm eventually becomes too easy to anticipate. Start with *Fair Play* for Ehrenreich, rather than for Domont’s increasingly blunt script.
