Daniel Kaluuya's accent in this Fred Hampton movie bothers me...

[Armchair Militant]

Why is this brehv playing Fred Hampton anyway?

 

[Peak]

Hmm.. Wjy do yhey get them to play us?

Do we ever get to play them in Roles? I'd like to hear them terrible British accents

Refer to Don Cheadle Oceans 12 circa 2002

 

[El Bombi]

Nate Parker would've been a good choice like someone said earlier.

Delroy Lindo is British?! how did I not know this

Yeah i learned that like a month ago. Blew my mind too

I don't have time to write essays. Take any film with an ensemble cast and the best performances will more often than not be British

From Chaplin to Cary Grant to Olivier to Daniel Day Lewis all the way through. Actors like Gielgud, Richard Harris, Anthony Hopkins, Peter Ustinov, Sean Connery, Cumberbatch, Caine, Fiennes, John Hurt, Alec Guinness, Michael Gambon, Christopher Lee, Patrick Stewart, Tom Hardy, Ian Mckellen, Peter Cushing, Christian Bale, Sean Bean, Charles Dance, Bob Hoskins, Jeremy Irons, Alan Rickman, Ben KIngsley, Liam Neeson, Gary Oldman, Oliver Reed, Peter Sellers, Tom Wilkinson, Ian McGregor, Andy Serkis, Richard Burton, Peter O Toole,

Then you have the younger guys and the endless list of character actors and stars like Legolas, Jude Law, James McAvoy, Nicolas Hoult (Beast), Aaron Perry Taylor-Johnson (Quicksilver), Robert Pattinson, Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Baker, Terrance Stamp, Derek Jacobi, Jason Isaacs, Brian Cox, Daniel Craig, Eddie Redmayne, Jamie Bell, Colin Farrell, Brosnan, Martin Freeman, Brendon Gleeson, Mark Strong, Simon Pegg, Hugo Weaving, Gerard Bullter, Sam Neill, Kiefer Sutherland, Clive Owen, Michael Fassbender, Ray Winstone, Hugh Lawrie, Mr. Bean, Henry Cavill, Ian Holm,

No Hannibal Lector, Highlander, James Bond, Schinldlers List, Picard, Magneto, Dracula, O-bi Wan, Alien(s), Loki, Die Hard, Gandhi, Gandalf ..

Imagine US actors trying to do this





America has nothing to compete with these guys.

Yet here you sit, poppin shyt on an American forum

This is how I feel when Americans try to play non American characters. Most of the time the accents are horribly done and too unauthentic.

Like when??

Don Cheadle in Hotel Rwanda?

 

[feelosofer]

Lol. Chicago accent is one of the hardest accents to pull off and most of ya'll know this even harder if you're talking about the 60s and 70s where you had transplants from the South.

If you think an American should have played him just say that.

 

[Chip Skylark]

Dude from snowfall is a good actor.

He’s GREAT in snowfall. Can’t wait for next week

He wasn’t good in the the movie on Netflix with Anthony mackie

 

[Black Lightning]

LaKeith Stanfield or that dude from the HBO show w/ Jurnee Smolett.

Jonathan Majors would have murdered that role.

 

[Sccit]

[BXKingPin82]

[Rekkapryde]

Did you know Idris was British before the Wire?

 

[Zero]

Bruh, I was GONE last night

 

[SheWantTheD]

Dude from snowfall is a good actor.

His american accent isn't that good, it sounds weird.

Had no clue he was British till I found out though.
