Brian Tyree Henry
Another star that I was first exposed to in the show ATLANTA, Mr. Henry has appeared in a number of roles – but almost seems typecast as the same character over and over again.
His matter-of-fact (yet casual) approach can be seen in a variety of roles at this point – although many are some sort of typical “street character” (White Boy Rick and Widows for example). He also played in If Beal Street Could Talk, the 2019 Child’s Play reboot and is slated in a range of works coming up in the Sci-fi and Superhero genre (who knew?) post-2020.
Like his previously mentioned ATLANTA castmate, I want to see Brian land more lead roles because I think he has the talent to carry the weight. Based on his IMDB page – looks like I’ll get the opportunity to see whether I’m right or not soon.
