Will Poulter victim of 'mistaken identity' after man takes him for 'Toy Story' character

Will Poulter revealed that a man misunderstood him on his recent trip to Los Angeles for Sid from Toy Story.

During an interview with GQ Hype, Poulter said, “A guy at a urinal in LA last week turned to me and said, ‘You’re in Toy Story, right?’ And I was like, ‘Well, that was animated."

“I don’t want to be rude. I also appreciate there’s a meme going round of me – I dressed up as Sid from Toy Story for anti-bullying week. So arguably I haven’t helped my case. But [Toy Story came out in] 1995. I was two. And they weren’t doing it through live action," the Midsommar actor quipped.

Poulter was for years the center of a joke that he resembled Andy’s troubled neighbour who troubles toys in the Pixar film.

In 2017, the Narnia star raised awareness against bullying by sporting the character's dress at Halloween.

Poulter recently starred in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, which critics hailed as one of the best Marvel movies in years.
