Leslie Odom Jr's film career
He's great in One Night in Miami, which is an excellent movie. He also gave it his all in The Many Saints of Newark, a movie that no one would turn down. He's got some small roles in decent stuff and despite the Exorcist reviews I think he's on an upward trajectory. There is no major piece of shit that he toplined, went wide and bombed.

r/blankies on Reddit: Leslie Odom Jr's film career
October 5, 2023 -
I'm just wondering what's going on here? He's great in Hammilton, brilliant! But his film career so far has me wondering if this is the move for him. With the films he has under his belt (I haven't seen The Exorcist colon Believer, but reviews haven't been kind), I'm wondering if this is a case of he's like Idris Elba, great actor who has bad taste and bad luck, or is he really not that good of an actor who has bad taste?
Is his agent to blame?

Haven’t seen it yet but he just got rave reviews for starring in a Broadway revival of Ossie Davis’s satire PURLIE VICTORIOUS. He seems to have focused on studio films, usually in supporting roles. Maybe he needs to take some lead roles in indies with good directors. He and Cynthia Erivo emerged on to the scene the same year, and I would have said her career was similarly weird….but now she has Wicked upcoming.
