After Miles Teller recently admitted he swore off doing press profiles in light of a “mishandled” incident with Esquire describing him as “kind of a dick” in 2015, another journalist is coming through with more details from that era.
The director of entertainment content at IGN, Jim Vejvoda, revealed an unhinged moment he had with Miles during a press tour interview for one of the Divergent movies in the 2010s.
“I interviewed Miles Teller and Jai Courtney for one of the Divergent movies (’memba them?) and asked them ‘What’s the next big thing you have coming up?’ To which Teller immediately replied, ‘My dick!’”
(For the record: This response didn’t end up making it into the final story, though his costar, Jai, did happen to say “dick” twice during the course of the interview.)
Jim’s colleague, Eric Golden, then weighed in, writing, “Wait, this is so funny based on the quote he was mad about…” to which Jim added, “Yep. I laughed at the moment but on the inside was thinking WTF dude we’re on the record here.”
Another person seemingly pointed out the actor’s hypocrisy, writing, “Miles Teller really said ‘my dick’ on record and then got mad when they called him one.”

The journalist’s revelation comes after Miles admitted he felt “violated” by his infamous September 2015 Esquire cover story, which started with the line, “You’re sitting across from Miles Teller at the Luminary restaurant in Atlanta and trying to figure out if he’s a dick.”
“That was so mishandled,” Miles told IndieWire of the 2015 profile after the Cannes premiere of his new film, Paper Tiger. “The reason why I have not done profiles is because I said, ‘Wow, if I’m not doing this interview on camera, this person can misquote things or put things out of order or say things that didn’t happen.’ It felt like such a violation of what actually transpired.”
He continued, “I told my team, ‘Guys, I don’t think I’m doing this again, because I’m reading this and this doesn’t sound like me to me. This is not life, so why would I ever want to be a part of something where they can just put that in?’ So it’s unfortunate that being a good person, that doesn’t sell. People want to click on the negativity. If you go to bed and put your head on your pillow and how you treat people truly, that’s what matters. That interview was like 12 years ago.”
