from Rotten Tomatoes Awards Tour Podcast
This week on the Awards Tour podcast, our host, Jacqueline Coley, sits down with Kingsley Ben-Adir, the charismatic star of Paramount's Bob Marley biopic ‘Bob Marley: One Love.’ His performance as the Reggae icon wowed critics and audiences along with his co-star Lashana Lynch. This film found the British-born star stepping into the shoes of another icon after he burst onto the scene playing the iconic Malcom X in Regina King's directorial debut ‘One Night in Miami.’ After capping off an impressive year, starring in the MCU series ‘Secret Invasion’ alongside Samuel Jackson and stealing scenes in Greta Gerwig's Academy Award-winning blockbuster ‘Barbie,’ Kingsley discusses how playing Bob Marley was his toughest role to date.Recently, we got to chat with Ben-Adir about his roots in London Theater, how he approached and took on the role of Bob Marley after careful consideration, and why he's hoping to play a fictional character in the future after a run of portraying real-life people.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
