  • How come not one young black actor can carry Denzel's torch?

    Nate Parker is okay, but after he raped some white girl at penn state and they covered it up, he lost that appeal to me, he looks like a short version of Denzel too.

    But I don't know of any other actor who can compare to Denzel?

    Jamie Foxx? he is okay he is multi-talented but he doesn't have that powerful presence that you get with Denzel, when Denzel does drama man his range is insane he commands the screen.

    This trailer just dropped today, its Denzel at his peak form, he is back

      I agree with you about Denzel's talent. I didn't know the girl who accused Nate Parker of rape was white. Why did read or hear that?

        She committed suicide. You beat me to the request for a link, though.

              Well I was beaten to it but MBJ has potential

              Regardless, you're talking about a guy who has won 2 Oscars and nominated in 4 others, imagine asking a young white actor to try to carry Jack Lemmon, Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, or Robert De Niro's torch. As far as accolades go, Denzel is up there with the very best of any race, so that's a heavy torch to carry. He is not just "good for a black guy", he is really up there with the best

                You have to be careful with judging actors based on poorly directed/written movies. He was actually one of the rare positives of the film, according to critics

                    Denzel has big shoes to fill man.

                    He doesn't have a very wide acting range, but he owns every character he plays and has a certain presence and charisma about him that can't be taught. One of the best.
