Inside Scott Speedman's Relationship With Lindsay Rae Hoffman
If you're a fan of "You," you're likely a fan of Scott Speedman. The actor plays Matthew Engler on the third season of the Netflix thriller, which became the most popular show on the U.S. Netflix charts in late October, according to Koimoi. The third season follows the unraveling marriage of Joe (played by Penn Badgley) and Love (played by Victoria Pedretti) after the birth of their baby boy. In the show, Speedman plays the couple's neighbor and the husband of one of their unfortunate victims.
Speaking about his relationship with his on-screen stepson Theo (played by Dylan Arnold) in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Speedman shared, "I'm a guy of a certain age and totally could've had a son that age. But I had no idea what it was like to have a son of that age at all, stepson or otherwise. So that took me a minute to get my head around, but I was lucky enough that Dylan Arnold was great."
Sure, Speedman doesn't have a son in real life, but fans of the actor may or may not know that he and his girlfriend, Lindsay Rae Hoffman, recently underwent a huge life change that may make him better poised to take on the role of fatherhood in future acting gigs.
