THE TALK: Rashiem Shepherd and Oraine Meikle star in One Blood.
Let the buzz begin! It’s that time of year already when we commence Awards Season Watch, putting the spotlight on the outstanding plays and performances that could be in the running for Thespy and Actor Boy consideration – and possibly go all the way, securing one of the coveted statuettes. This week, we highlight some Best Actor hopefuls, breaking them down into best bets, possibles and long shots.
BEST BETS
Ricardo McFarlane (AS HE WATCHES): The seasoned actor gave a commanding turn as a talented photographer with two new women (Sabrina Thomas and Mona Dean Supria) in his life – and skeletons in his closet.
Ricky Rowe (YOUNG & WRECKLESS): The 2017 Thespy winner was in fine form as an overprotective single dad grappling with big bills and an increasingly complex relationship with his best friend, Max (Junior Williams).
Rashiem Shepherd (ONE BLOOD): The fast-rising actor and scribe stunned audiences as a ruthless, domineering father with wildly unorthodox methods for turning his son (Oraine Meikle) into a man.
David Tulloch (SUGAR DADDY): The multihyphenate showbiz vet returned to the stage with the laudable portrayal of a struggling businessman on the brink of bankruptcy and a messy divorce.
