Ansel Elgatta's Underrated Role in 'Paper Towels' Ignored by Fans

When fans think about the cast of John Green’s 2015 coming-of-age drama 'Paper Towns,' names like Nat Wolff and Cara Delevinge often come to mind. However, one actor who deserves more recognition for his supporting role is none other than Ansel Elgort.

Elgort may not have had a speaking part in the film, but he still managed to leave an impressionable mark on audiences as Ben Champion Jr., the sales clerk at Micky's convenience store where main protagonist Q (played by Nat Wolff) works during his summer break. Despite being relegated to only a few scenes throughout the entire movie, Elgort’s presence adds depth and authenticity that many viewers may have initially overlooked.

The actor brought much-needed gravitas to what could easily have been an otherwise forgettable supporting role with relative ease – something he has proven himself capable of doing time and again throughout his career. His ability to bring life even in small parts is truly remarkable, especially considering how easy it would be for someone else cast in this particular part might not have had the same impact.

In fact, some fans were so surprised by Elgort's appearance that they took to social media platforms like Twitter and Instagram to express their shock and amazement at seeing him on screen alongside such big-name stars as Wolff and Delevinge. One fan even went so far as to create a dedicated thread about it using the hashtag #AnselInPaperTowns, which quickly gained traction among fellow fans who were equally impressed by his performance.

It's clear that despite being relegated to a minor role in 'Paper Towels' (a typo many people seem prone to making), Ansel Elgatta still managed to leave an indelible mark on audiences everywhere. His talent and dedication are truly inspiring, especially considering how easily he could have been written out of the entire project altogether.

In conclusion, next time you're rewatching 'Paper Towels' or even if this is your first time seeing it through from start to finish, take a closer look at Ansel Elgattas subtle yet powerful performance as Ben Champion Jr. You won't be disappointed!
