Netflix fans have unanimously crowned ‘the best British actor to date’
'He's just utterly incredible,' one fan said.
Netflix fans are hailing one star ‘the best British actor’ they’ve ever seen after yet another stellar turn in his latest TV show.
Last week, crime drama Adolescence was released by the streaming giant, a riveting four-parter that told the story of a 13-year-old boy accused of murder.
Owen Cooper, 15, left audiences staggered in his first ever professional acting role as the suspect Jamie, holding his own in scenes with prolific performers including Ashley Walters and Erin Doherty.
Stephen Graham, who plays Jamie’s dad Eddie, also gave one of the greatest standout performances of the ‘one-shot’ series, with many viewers lauding the actor for being one of the best actors they’ve ever witnessed on screen.
The A Thousand Blows star has plenty of critically-acclaimed films and TV shows under his belt, from This Is England to Peaky Blinders, The Irishman and Line of Duty.
