Yara Shahidi, Zoey Deutch, Bill Skarsgård, and Five Other Stars Offer Their Cravings, Picks, and Binge-worthy Hits
It’s official, the barriers between the cable box and box office are broken: More is more. The top 2019 Oscars went to Olivia Colman and Rami Malek, two actors who got their start on television. Back-to-back best supporting actors Mahershala Ali and Sam Rockwell are up for the same Emmy this month, while cinematic wonder women Julia Roberts and Amy Adams made major debuts on Hulu and HBO, respectively, this season. This summer, the most Oscar-nominated actor in history, Meryl Streep, graces weekly cable in Big Little Lies.
Now, Hollywood’s rising class is following the lead with gusto, moving seamlessly between film and TV, reaping the benefits of a renaissance in storytelling. From franchises to miniseries and indies, with a superhero stint here and there, these eight actors are among the busiest this fall, and you’ll see them stealing screens big and small.
