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

[Lannister]

Honestly, I never knew Chadwick had so many fans. He was just ok as Jackie Robinson & James Brown. He was good as Thurgood Marshall (movie was ehhh) and in 21 Bridges, but forgettable in Gods of Egypt and MCU movies besides Civil War...and maybe captivating in less than 1/2 of his TV appearances...at least the ones I saw...Fringe, Lincoln Heights, Castle, Cold Case..

He was a good actor and a seemingly even better person. He was like Ledger in that he passed before his potential was fully realized and also like Heath his last performance was his best(Ma Rainey).

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 can only play one role.

 

[Morose Polymath]

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.

He was Dr. Manhattan (Regina King's husband) in the HBO Watchmen series.

Oh yea he's good. He was in something else recently. Can't remember what

 

[Apollo Creed]

Candyman

He was Black Manta in Aquaman.

Majors is definitely refreshing. Could potentially be the next Denzel. He's still pretty young. A lot of charisma.

 

[KingJay]

Unfortunately – spoiler – he’s killed at the end of Loki,

how does the article consider that any typa spoiler warning lol

 

[Neuromancer]

He's a good Kang.

 

[Ukbrotha]

Weird seeing some hate for him in this thread. Majors is about to be a real powerhouse actor. He can definitely deliver in big roles.

Cant believe some are saying he's got white man push. smh, Some of you lot cant have nice things.

He's a good Kang.

Technically, we havent seen him as Kang yet.

I think that dude Yayha has an incredible agent, because I haven’t seen the acting range for this dude to be Dr. Manhattan, Morpheus, Candyman, and Black Mantis already. I really don’t see it, and I’ve tried to. He’s wooden. To me, MBJ is CLEARLY a better actor than dude, and I think MBJ is a struggle actor.

As far as Majors, he’s okay. He’s not some transcendent acting talent; but he’s not bad either. He still has some room to grow.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

All these young guys got room to grow…. Would be terrible if they peaked in they 30s

 

[Un-AmericanDreamer]

Denzel son is a good actor as well.

MOST OF HIS ROLES ARE WITH WARNER
SO HE MUST HAS SOME SORT OF
DEAL WITH THEM.

THEYRE PUSHING HIM HARD
AND HE HAS MORE WARNER
PROJECTS ON THE WAY.

We've got a good selection of young black men actors right now.

And Majors has been on my radar since San Fran. So I'm rootin for the breh

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

I like Lakeith the most outta the current crop of young actors, but I never saw him as a Denzel type..

But really ya gotta give it time for a lotta these brehs.. their only in their early-mid 30s. Hell Denzel didn't come into his own until his late 30s-early 40s.
