Netflix struck gold when it unlocked its original movie ‘Bird Box’ on December 13th.

For, the movie – which stars the brilliant Sandra Bullock– has seen its impact reach above and beyond what may have been its intended audience thanks to a stellar performance by the 28-year-old actor African-American actor Trevante Rhodes.

Trevante Rhodes has a great acting career ahead. I think he can easily portray many types of black male characters. He was ok as Tom in Bird Box but showed tf out as Chiron in Moonlight.

Happy to see a new generation of black male actors besides Denzel, Will, Morris, Taye.
