My Take

Xosha Roquemore is the kind of performer I keep an eye on precisely because she is not chasing the spotlight. Her Tamra on The Mindy Project could have been a one-note comic device; instead she gave the character rhythm, specificity, and a delivery her castmates visibly fed off. That is craft, and the Tisch training shows. From the heaviness of Precious to voice work in Space Jam: A New Legacy, her range runs wider than her credit list suggests. Hollywood is slow to build vehicles around character actresses like her, which I consider its loss. When she lands a role with real room, people will act surprised. I will not be.
