Nicholas Galitzine Faces New Career Low With Film
31 Oct
Summary
- The Mosquito Bowl has a 31% Rotten Tomatoes score.
- Galitzine starred in Masters of the Universe before this.
- The film's plot centers on college football players in WWII.
The World War II drama "The Mosquito Bowl," starring Nicholas Galitzine, has garnered a disappointing 31% on Rotten Tomatoes, representing a career-low score for the actor. Directed by Peter Berg, the film depicts college football players who enlist in the Marine Corps following the attack on Pearl Harbor.
These servicemen participate in a pivotal football game, known as the Mosquito Bowl, prior to the Battle of Okinawa. The narrative is adapted from Buzz Bissinger's 2015 book of the same name. Galitzine portrays John McLaughry, a real-life college athlete, a role that necessitated a rapid physical transformation.
Galitzine had only three weeks to transition between filming "Masters of the Universe" and "The Mosquito Bowl." The film also features Bill Skarsgård as Bob Baumann, alongside Ray Nicholson, Tom Francis, Brent Comer, and Pat McAfee. "The Mosquito Bowl" is currently in theaters and is scheduled for a Netflix release on November 25, 2026.
