Nick Jonas' 'Big Imagination' Guides His Choices: 'Want to Do It All'

The Parting Shot with H. Alan Scott

When you've reached the level of stardom Nick Jonas has, you can pretty much do anything. But his fame isn't a factor for him when picking projects, the story is. "It's definitely helpful to work with brilliant people. And this one [The Good Half] is insane." In the film, Jonas plays Renn, who returns home for his mom's funeral. He says the movie "made me think of great films that I think do that really well, where the themes and the story might be sad [but] the only way through situations is to find the humor." Known for music, Jonas is proud to do a variety of things, including an expected 2025 Broadway musical The Last Five Years. "I get to be really creative with the things that I take on in the acting space, in addition to the music side of things. And Broadway is a combination of both, which will be a great challenge and super-fun experience." In the end, though, it's all about the people. "It's incredible to just keep jumping to different projects and seeing the creative voices and just powerhouse people that I'm fortunate enough to work with."
