Miles Teller was the original actor attached to star in La La Land before the role went to Ryan Gosling, but Miles is now clearing up a big rumor about the part.
A story was published over the weekend claiming he wanted way more money for the role than was originally offered.
“‘reporting’ alternative facts,” Miles tweeted about the article.
“I’m a pretty strong believer that everything happens for a reason. I’m happy Damien made the film he wanted to make… I don’t get jealous of good reviews,” Miles previously said of not doing the role.
Emma Watson was also originally linked to Emma Stone‘s role in the film, but things did not work out.
