Let me tell you something: if you have not been watching Teyonah Parris, you’re missing out. Seriously. This lady has quietly yet profoundly made her own niche in Hollywood, and the scope she demonstrates in her movies? Mind-blowing. Whether she’s crying you out, having you laugh, or keeping you on the edge of your seat, […]

Ever see a show and think, “Wow, this actor totally brings a character to life,” even if you hadn’t heard of them beforehand? That’s just what Lance Barber does. He’s not always the main star, but somehow he steals scenes and remains in your mind. I’ve spent an entire day marathon-watching some of his greatest

And sitting right in the midst of it all was Denise Richards. To some of us, she was the audacious pilot in Starship Troopers. To others, she

When they’re discussing Hollywood’s up-and-comers, Lewis Pullman is usually in the mix. Yes, he’s Bill Pullman’s son, but come on—Lewis has made a name for himself. He’s not coasting on a surname; he’s established himself as an actor who can bring depth, charm, and a hint of mystery to every part. You’ve likely spotted him

You remember that feeling when an actor quietly slips into a film, you don’t really notice them at first, and then—boom—they just utterly steal the scene? That’s Lewis Pullman. He’s not the boisterous figure on screen. He’s not necessarily the instant hero. But there’s something about how he performs his characters—smoky, multifaceted, and real—that makes
