Good Morning, World

.

It's funny, you just off-handedly mention somebody one day, and the next they've planted themselves into the very front part of your brain. I mentioned a few names of currently popular black actors (and can we take a moment to acknowledge the fact that we finally have an actual crop of popular black actors? The list doesn't start and end with Denzel now!) yesterday when thinking who oughta play the lead role in Steve McQueen's just-announced bio-pic of Paul Robeson, and David Oyelowo was one of them, and here we are. Hi David! He is apparently very good as Martin Luther King Jr in Selma, I hear. Anyway these shots are from the 2002 BBC series Spooks (called MI-5 here, I think?) which I guess he was on - as with most black actors he's been toiling away for a very long time of it without much recognition. (Although I suppose you could say that for most actors, in the broad sense.) Well clearly, he's made it out the other end now. Oh and if you want more shirtless David, click here.
