So, Kingsley Ben-Adir! This man is absolutely having a moment, and I am living for it. First of all, according to UPI Entertainment News just dropped on January fifteenth, Kingsley is officially attached to an erotic thriller called "Scorn" alongside the gorgeous Adria Arjona. We do not have major details yet, but darling, the fact that he's pivoting from spiritual biopics to spicy thriller territory? Chef's kiss. The range!
But wait, there's more! Netflix is absolutely obsessed with our boy right now. "Bob Marley: One Love" is still sitting pretty at the top of Netflix's charts this week, and according to Yardbarker's Top Ten Movies breakdown from January sixteenth, Kingsley is getting absolutely glowing praise. They're saying he delivers a grounded, human performance that captures Marley's charisma without slipping into imitation. Lashana Lynch is anchoring the emotional core as Rita Marley, but honey, Kingsley is the beating heart of this whole thing. The movie is blending political tension, personal struggle, and spiritual force like nobody's business.
And get this—the Jamaica Observer is crediting him with helping to elevate the entire Jamaican film industry. Fae Ellington, a broadcasting and theatre icon, actually worked with Kingsley on set to help him nail those Jamaican speech patterns. That's dedication, that's craft, that's what separates the good from the absolutely transcendent.
Meanwhile, according to Apple Podcasts and Screen Daily, Kingsley's awards season trajectory is absolutely scorching. We're talking biography specials diving into his rise, his name floating around for major recognition, and he's even leading the cast of "Frank and Louis," an English-language debut for director Petra Volpe alongside Rob Morgan. Plus, TIME Magazine honored him on their TIME100 Next 2024 list, with folks saying he exudes a true love for humanity and has this magical ability to make others feel more human through his performances.
Oh, and because he's that guy, he's also slaying the fashion world—Gucci tapped him for a campaign showcasing the iconic Horsebit 1953 loafer. The man is literally everywhere right now, and I am absolutely here for this era.
