Cop a gander at Damson Idris!

The actor scorches the latest issue of HighSnobiety magazine in a scintillating shoot.

Lensed by Aaron Sinclair, the feature arrives as Idris navigates the end of one chapter and the beginning of exciting new projects.

For, it lands on the heels of the series finale of ‘Snowfall’ – on which the British-Nigerian star led as anti-hero Franklin Saint for six seasons.

Head below to see more snaps, as well as Idris reflecting on the role and what he’ll be taking from it with him moving forward.

“The biggest thing I’ve learned from playing Franklin is the process of creating and living with characters. I’ve seen success playing him and I believe that’s due to the work I put into it. Going forward, I know I have to approach every character with the same intensity.

It’s obviously bittersweet because the character is ending, but this is a show that’s going to live on forever. I don’t think I’m ever really going to escape Franklin Saint. There’s people who still call me Franklin on the street, and who will probably call me Franklin for the rest of my career. That’s just the world we live in today.”
