Discussing his new film, Goat, which addresses hazing Jonas shares, “I think it’s a conversation that is important in this moment because there’s so many of these stories in recent years of young men pushing each other to a point where it’s all just so dangerous.”

Talking gender constructs, Jonas adds, “And at the center of the film, as far as themes go, is masculinity: and what that looks like at 16, and the pressures forced onto these young men, and the stakes that become so high. So being able to tell that story in a way that feels very grounded and very real, and starting a conversation, was important.”

A regular supporter of the LGBT community, Jonas has come under fire for how genuine his efforts are. Addressing critics, Jonas expresses, “I’m totally aware of my intentions in any and all of my attempts to be an ally to the LGBT community: they are pure, and from my heart, and from my passion to be there for a community that’s been there for me from an early age.”
