François Arnaud

I like that François Arnaud's career didn't start with a safe, commercial choice. Launching in Xavier Dolan's I Killed My Mother in 2009 signals an actor drawn to bold, auteur-driven work rather than easy visibility, and the Vancouver Film Critics Circle Award plus two Canadian Screen Award nominations back up that instinct. He's a Montreal native working in both French and English, and that bilingual footing strikes me as a real asset for someone who clearly wants substance over typecasting. At 188 centimeters he has obvious leading-man presence, but what I notice more is the choosiness. That's the trait I'd bet on.
