Brandon Sklenar is not letting the trolls get to him.

Sklenar, 34, and Meghann Fahy were discussing their new film, Drop, in a video MTV posted via Instagram on Friday, April 11. In the comments section, one user referred to Sklenar as “Walmart Glen Powell” and the actor had the perfect comeback.

“Who doesn’t love a bargain?” Sklenar replied.

The user was seemingly surprised to get a response from Sklenar but was impressed by his quick wit.

Brandon Sklener and Meghann Fahy’s latest movie proves first dates can truly be a nightmare. On Wednesday, January 22, Universal Pictures and Blumhouse debuted the first trailer for the highly anticipated thriller, Drop. The film tells the story of a widowed mother named Violet (Fahy) who embarks on her first date in years with Henry […]

“Rlly don’t know u from any movies yet but you’ve just gained a supporter 🤣,” the troll replied.

While the social media user isn’t familiar with Sklenar’s resume, he has been in a series of recent successful projects, including the Yellowstone spinoff 1923. He also starred in the box office hit It Ends With Us, alongside Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. Sklenar played Atlas, a childhood friend and love interest for Lively’s character.

Following It Ends With Us, Sklenar signed on to star in Drop alongside Fahy, 34. The thriller follows Fahy’s character, a widow and survivor of domestic abuse, as she goes on a date with a new love interest played by Sklenar. However, the date goes awry after Fahy receives a series of AirDrops to her phone, forcing her to complete tasks in order to save her daughter. The project is helmed by Christopher Landon, who also directed Happy Death Day.

“It was after It Ends with Us, and 1923 [season 2] had pushed for some reason. So I was eager to keep working when Drop came along, and it just seemed like a great opportunity and a great acting exercise,” Sklenar said of the film in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter published on Thursday, April 10. “It was also a chance to work with Chris, and I love his films: Freaky, Happy Death Day, and We Have a Ghost. That was a fun movie. I’m just a big horror-thriller fan.”

Sklenar was also cast in The Housemaid, which is a film adaptation of the Freida McFadden book of the same name. In addition to Sklenar, Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried have been cast in the thriller.

All three films Sklenar has worked on in the past year have had themes of domestic violence — giving the movies a personal connection to him.

“It’s a theme that’s been around me and in my life for a long time,” Sklenar explained to THR. “Someone very close to me has been dealing with it for many years, and I’ve been helping her navigate that space as much as I can. Perhaps, by the grace of God, it keeps finding its way into my sphere as a theme because it’s a theme in my own life.”
