What's sad about these legendary actors like Denzel getting older is that it doesn't seem like threre're any up and comers that can fill their shoes. Like what young actor today, has even close to the charisma and screen presence of Denzel? I'm not even on some :flabbynsick: back in my day shyt, I'm genuinely curious.

I’m 33 , so I might be :flabbynsick:too, don’t know how old you are… but I mean would the younger generation like in they 20s even say Michael B Jordan is remotely close. I’m not hating on him at all. I like him as an actor. Dude from Newark and my fam from there so I def support him and been a fan since the wire, but outside of females, will any man say he has surpassed Denzel. He a good actor but nowhere near as good if we being honest. Charisma….no… natural screen presence… no. Acting ability… fukk no…Majors honestly had all of that a lot more than Jordan in the acting department in regards to skill but his career is probably over. And women didn’t like him nowhere as much as a Denzel or even Jordan. It mightbe a Denzel one day. But no one has came remotely close

I got you by almost a decade. I agree Michael B. Jordan isn't even close. I haven't seen much with Majors but even he falls short from what I've seen. Like I don't see anyone doing Johnathan Majors impersonations years from now? And yeah Hopefully he can bounce back from the legal shyt though. Hate to see brehs go out like that. But speaking of which Denzel was thorough off screen too:



Couldn't see any of these young black actor come with this kind of realness today. Been married to the same black women for 40 years, never been caught up in no public fukkery. Never wore a dress either, truly an exemplary brother.
