“I think the first thing that stood out to me was the relationship between the brothers, something I can relate to…And it’s just an amazing story about masculinity and what that looks like today,” he explained.

Nick added that he advised his younger brother Frankie to watch the film before he headed off to college this fall, saying, “I said ‘Look, man. Before you decide to pledge a fraternity, I’d like you to see this movie.’ Just as a bit of an educational tool [showing] the worst case scenario.”

Goat is set to hit theaters, on demand, and digital HD on September 23rd.
