Jonathan Majors is probably the most exciting actor to come along this decade. [ARTICLE]

I don't see how they are any better or worse than their White counterparts. Kaluuya, Mateen, Boyega and Damson Idris can hang in there and are just as competent as the likes of Holland, Chamalet, and Driver.

Plus, Black actors still aren't getting nearly the same amount of opprtunities or offered nearly the same variety of roles but its slowly getting there.
Don't know how I forget about Kaluuya. He is amazing and is fully formed at this point as far as his skillset.

Majors shows a lot of potential but I don't think he's there yet, I really like Yahya right now as well though as far as black actors go, and Lakeith Stanfield.
lakeith is my favorite but he definitely got some issues going on i hope he gets sorted out

i think we got some good young potential black young actors but unfortunately i dont think we got anyone that can fill chadwick shoes right now. he was the next denzel for our generation. i dont think we got anybody with potential to get to that level, yet atleast

This dude is super basic.

The media being behind him compared to any other black man is a red flag to me

Usually when the media pushes a black man he is gay, lightskin, old asf or if he is dark skinned he has an unattractive trait somewhere.

Found it... his forehead. He looks like an old black guy despite being in the younger side.

Hold on no homo but this dude ugly as shyt. I never really got a good look at him. This ain't no every man.

Yall really only buying this because white man selling? Wow

What the fukk are you even talking about? When was the argument about white actors or opportunities? I never said white actors are better bc I think young American actors in general have been ass for quite sometime.

I'm not sure who Yahya is, but I will say as far as young black actors go Lakeith Stanfield has the LOOK of a star more than any of them. He is a good actor, not great. But he has potential.

Lakeith is very good. Unfortunately, he got sidekick push instead of leading man push.

Damn near every young actor get a push....regardless of their ethnicity. It's really about what they do with it. Remember Rob Brown? Sean Patrick Thomas? Hollywood media gets behind an actor/actress for a 1-2 year window, then moves on.
