My problem with the casting isn't so much his Twilight laden resume as much as his look screams relapsed-recovering meth addict.
His acting is wooden and stale. Watch him in Damsel or High Life... he is literally just a (if you are into the meth look) pretty face reciting lines. There is no depth to his acting. Compare him in Good Time to Afflec in The Town (same type of pacing) if you want to see the difference in ability to express, believably, a range of emotions larger than just high and bored.
It seems as if the piece of greatest importance to the casting director was... who can pull off "handsome while brooding".
