His burgeoning fandom for the team and admiration for Rodgers presents an intriguing crossover between Hollywood and sports.
As the NFL season heats up, Hoult’s experience at the Steelers game is a fresh reminder of the global reach of American football and the excitement it brings to fans worldwide.
