Jeffrey Wright Talks “American Fiction” Oscar Nominations & Making His Mom Proud 

Jeffrey is a brilliant actor…congratulations on his nomination!

Jeffrey Wright is a breath of fresh air

His Aunt isn't wrong, an Oscar nom for him is long overdue. He's an incredible actor.

Well deserved ...always been a beast ! Phenominal actor has such a wide range !

Having seen this, the person who cut the trailer missed so much of this film. I thought it was a one-joke movie from the trailer and this is so much more. While there is comedy it's also a deep family drama and an exploration of one of the best-written characters I've seen in a long time. The writing is incredible, and the cast is all so amazing. Wright blew me away, but so did the rest of this star-studded cast.

Tamra looks beautiful 🥰🔥🔥

My fav!!!

Saw American Fiction. It was so good. So worth the buzz!

Saw the movie American Fiction today. The acting was superb. I’ve always been a Jeffrey Wright fan. I loved him in Boycott, Shaft and now American Fiction.

Congratulations my brother Jeffrey Wright Washington for personifying our Brown ... Brave ... Brilliant ... Beautiful ... Benevolence. Frederick Washington Douglass ... Richard Wright ... Malcolm X

I've always been a fan of Jeffrey Wright, when I first was introduced to him in his role for Shaft and Cadillac Records. I have come to realize that he is very talented with a body of work that I need to go back to watch. Hope that he wins the Oscar.

I loved him playing Basquiat❤

I first saw him in shaft and he was great

Brilliant actor! Jeffrey Wright ❤

I agree. He is certainly overdue. He is a great actor.

Congratulations Jeffrey Wright! I enjoy all of his work. He's a great actor.

I fell in love with him when i saw him in angels in America

Well Deserved recognition of his achievements accomplishments and bravery to speak write and share real facts👌🏾👌🏾🏆🏆

It’s his time. Long over due. ❤❤

I soo loved him from the time I saw him playing Basquiat❤

Brilliant actor, obviously with a distinctive voice. I still marvel at his performance in the (unnecessary) remake of SHAFT with Samuel L. Jackson -- where he played the Dominican drug lord -- extremely entertaining!!

One of the best he is whoever he plays on screen.

As the late Joan Rivers would say, who is Tamron Hall wearing?

❤❤
