Did you see Maleficent? You saw Brenton Thwaites alongside Angelina Jolie — now he’s starring in The Giver with Meryl Streep!

MTV reports on some of the weird things that happen in the new adaptation of the book we’re reading for book club.

… through a large chunk of the movie, Thwaites is doing nothing but carrying a baby.

A real baby.

And what’s that rule about show-business? Never work with kids or animals, but Thwaites, on “The Giver,” did both.

“I could write a book on this answer,” Thwaites said. “The short version goes… Yes, I was on set for months with a baby in my arms. The two beautiful twins that play Gabriel are amazing and were great scene partners. They were such responsive babies, so calm and relaxed (mostly).

“I had one scene with Gabriel in my arms and a cheetah walks past us eating a steak the size of a New York pizza. Planned and controlled, though still scary! Two huge don’ts in film making, but we worked it!”

I can’t wait to see this movie — gotta finish the book first!
