One of my favorite things is when I find an actor who is delivering great performance after great performance, and their career is literally in the beginning stages or just starting to take off.
Like, there are some actors — whether they're brand-new to the business or have worked a lot but are still young — who you just have this feeling that 20 years from now, we'll consider them one of the best actors of our generation and they could win an Oscar someday.
Maybe you're like me and you fully believe that Florence Pugh is a mini Meryl Streep, and it's hard to believe that her breakout role in Midsommar was only three years ago because she's achieved so much success already.
Perhaps you have been astounded by Asante Blackk's talent ever since you watched When They See Us on Netflix, and then his turn on This Is Us was equally as moving and well-performed, so you are convinced he'll be one of the most talked-about actors someday.
Maybe you can list all of Lucas Hedges' amazing and award-worthy performances — like Moonrise Kingdom, Boy Erased, Lady Bird, Manchester by the Sea, just to name a few — and you can't wait for the day you watch him win his first Oscar.
Heck, perhaps you can't wait for the day when you're explaining to your kids how you remember when Zendaya was just a Disney Channel kid and how you watched her become a full-blown movie star and one of the most influential celebrities of all time.
