Lashana Lynch

Lashana Lynch is genuinely one of the most exciting screen presences to break through in recent years, and I think she's still criminally underrated despite the massive franchises she's been part of. Her Maria Rambeau in Captain Marvel had this quiet, grounded warmth that completely stole scenes from under everyone else, and then she turned around and walked into No Time to Die as the first Black female 007 — not a sidekick, not a love interest, but the actual agent holding the number — and made it feel completely earned. The BAFTA Rising Star win in 2022 was well-deserved recognition, but honestly the category undersells her; she's not "rising," she's already there. A British actress of Jamaican heritage bringing that kind of authority and nuance to major blockbusters is something I want a lot more of.
