Colman Domingo
Love, love and love

“It may seem uncharacteristic for a two-time Oscar nominee, Emmy winner and a perennial best-dressed-list designee to suggest a Starbucks in a Malibu strip mall (albeit a strip mall with an ocean view) as a meeting spot to discuss these many projects. But Domingo says he wanted to talk “somewhere I actually go.” (For the record, Domingo’s Starbucks order is a 1971 dark roast with a splash of oat milk.) Much of the narrative that has surrounded Domingo thus far has been about the hustle — the decades spent as a theater fixture and character actor before Hollywood turned its long overdue attention his way.
When asked whether he would have welcomed success earlier, he laughs, “I think my finances would have wanted it, yeah.” And then he earnestly offers: “Maybe I’m saying this now because of the way things have been mapped out, but I feel like I wouldn’t change a thing. I really wouldn’t.”
Whether or not recognition came at the right moment, one thing is certain: Now that it is here, Domingo is having a damn good time.” More of the cover story on thr.com

A look fit for a king, @kingofbingo that is.
