Hamilton

Jul 07, 2020

Besides Miranda, the cast is made up of incredibly talented artists who took Miranda’s brilliant score and breathed life into it despite being some of the most challenging songs to perform live.

Urban Cowboy

The King of Staten Island

Jun 08, 2020

Davidson had to play Scott as so much of the story parallels his own life. He obviously drew on his experiences to bring out the emotions he faces in the film.
