In Hunger magazine’s latest issue, British actor Will Poulter graces the spotlight and advocates for mental health. Amidst the serene atmosphere of London’s Hyde Park, he poses for Rankin’s lens, sporting a sleek Dior Men ensemble styled by Ellie Witt, with grooming by Nadia Altinbas.

Poulter, who is lighting up the silver screen in this summer’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 as Adam Warlock, opens up about his struggles with depression and anxiety. “I delayed confronting living with myself between roles and getting to know myself, making friends with my inner child and not hating myself,” he shares.

The latest edition of Hunger magazine offers a tribute to the career journey of acclaimed photographer Rankin. Titled “Timeslice,” this issue is a standalone collector’s piece. Its release perfectly aligns with Rankin’s exhibition, “Zeitsprünge,” or Leaps in Time, running at The Ernst Leitz Museum Wetzlar in Germany until September 27, 2023.
