Although most folks applaud Paul Mescal for his incredible acting skills, a majority of online fans know the bloke for his love of short shorts. It’s even got to a point where Mescal has become some kind of short shorts goddaddy because of the way he consistently champions the garment. And just like most of the internet, his Gladiator II costars Fred Hechinger and Joseph Quinn have agreed that the “short shorts lobby owe a lot” to the actor.
