My Take
Richard Harmon will always be John Murphy to me, and that is high praise. He took a character written to be hated and slowly turned him into the most achingly human person on The 100. That is the gift I admire most in him: an instinct for the morally tangled role over the easy hero. Born in Mississauga in 1991, he has built a career playing the wounded outsider, and audiences keep forgiving these characters because Harmon makes them impossible to dismiss. I have a soft spot for actors who hold a story together from the margins, and he is exactly that kind of quiet anchor.
