Goosebumps Star Jeremy Ray Taylor Learns from Veteran Actor Josh Duhamel

In September 2025, 22-year-old actor Jeremy Ray Taylor, known for his role in the Goosebumps films, had the opportunity to work alongside veteran actor Josh Duhamel, 52, in their new movie. Taylor revealed that he was in awe of Duhamel's and other seasoned actors' work ethic, having watched them perform on screen for years.

Despite Duhamel's character being tasked with teaching Taylor's character how to drive a manual transmission car in the film, the roles were reversed in reality. Taylor shared that the car they used for filming was actually an automatic, and he ended up instructing Duhamel on how to make it appear manual.

Taylor expressed his gratitude for the chance to work with Duhamel, whom he had admired since his role in the Transformers franchise. The young actor noted that the on-screen chemistry between them was genuine, and no special preparation was needed, as Duhamel is simply "a great guy."

Looking ahead, Taylor stated that he would be more than willing to return to the Goosebumps and IT franchises, should the opportunity arise. He has a deep appreciation for the projects he has been involved with and is eager to continue exploring those beloved worlds.
