Aya Cash

Aya Cash is one of those actors I trust to make a difficult character land. On You're the Worst she made a prickly, self-sabotaging heroine oddly lovable; on The Boys she turned ice-cold villainy into something unnervingly watchable. That range—charm and menace from the same toolkit—comes from real stage discipline, and you hear it in her timing. I keep wanting writers to hand her bigger, stranger leads, because she can hold a contradiction without flinching. There's a wry intelligence underneath her work that the industry hasn't fully cashed in on yet, and I think her best roles are still ahead.
