Nat Wolff: Call me bum-chuck

Nat Wolff was nicknamed ‘bum-chuck’ by Cara Delevingne on the set of their new movie.

The 20-year-old actor stars alongside the British supermodel in Paper Towns. The pair bonded off-set as well as in front of the camera, so much so that they soon had pet names for each other.

“Cara called me “bum-chuck” and then I started calling her “bum-chuck” so she’d be like “bum-chuck. Make me a sandwich,” he explained to Variety, adding he followed her orders on a number of occasions. “Probably ten times. Ten or fifteen times. I’m not kidding.”

Nat plays Quentin, who goes in search of Cara’s character, the rebellious Margo when she disappears. When they weren’t calling each other bum-chuck, the stars would refer to each other by their on-screen alter egos even when the camera’s weren’t rolling.

“It was nice. It makes the whole experience… this was my first time doing it, but it was just fun,” he continued. “I remember playing video games one day and it was one of the last days of hearing them call me Q and I was like ‘Aw man, I’m going to be so upset when this is over.’”

The cast also bonded over music, with Nat making Cara a playlist when the shoot started.

“I said, “From Q to Margo.” And we would play each other songs back and forth and stuff. And honestly the whole cast used music as a way to bond,” he added. “I listened to a lot of music that was on the radio when I was in seventh or eighth grade because that’s when I connected to Quentin the most. So I used to play Human by the Killers on set a lot, which I hadn’t heard since then. That became the song of the set.”
