In 2024, Wright uploaded a video regarding #notmyrodrick. Many viewers say he looks more like Rodrick than he did before.[2]
Trivia
- The only reason why he kept his hair when playing Rodrick was because it was appropriate for a rock band.
- The fans weren't happy about the replacement of Devon Bostick, which caused the tag #NotMyRodrick to trend on Twitter. Wright himself made a reference to this on Instagram in 2022. He also uploaded a video about it in March 2024.
