Michael Cera: hoodie king of Hollywood
By Patrick Kevin Day, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
Awkward outsider, baby-faced master of comic subtlety, unlikely sex symbol, 21st century Everyman-boy -- “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist” star
Since “Arrested Development’s” end in 2006, Cera has starred in three feature films, his own Web series and a handful of TV guest appearances. In almost all of these, he’s appeared with his trademark zip-up hoodie. Like Bogey and his fedora, or Astaire and his tux, Cera has turned the dressed-down, low-maintenance uniform of twentysomething hipsters everywhere into a true film icon.
Come along with us as we go for a quick jaunt through Cera’s cotton-blend-clad oeuvre. (JoJo Whilden / Associated Press)
