Brian Tyree Henry 'dramatically impressed' Donald Glover from the start, the 'Atlanta' creator says. Adds 'Causeway' director Lila Neugebauer, 'I think he can do anything.'
.” He began his career onstage and has returned to the medium in between; several years after originating a role in “The Book of Mormon,” he landed a Tony nomination for performing in a Broadway revival of Kenneth Lonergan’s “Lobby Hero.”Henry’s latest project, the new Apple TV Plus film “Causeway,” casts him opposite Jennifer Lawrence, a formidable screen partner with whom Henry holds his own.
Born in North Carolina and raised partially in Washington, Henry has acted since childhood. He attended Morehouse College, a historically Black school in Atlanta, and graduate school at Yale before finding work in theater. Having been a Black man at Yale, and then on Broadway, Henry knows what it is to be in the minority. He approaches his craft with empathy, at times drawing from his own experiences.
As their friendship deepens, James reveals to Lynsey that he endured his own traumatic injury some time ago, the circumstances of which left him feeling ashamed and isolated. While grieving in his own life, Henry says, the actor thought to himself, “Well, nobody can see me. No one knows what’s going on. I have to make sure that I smile … and that I’m okay when I leave the house.” He saw himself in James’s need to push forward, which sometimes meant denying the immensity of his pain.
“I wanted the authenticity of James to really shine through,” Henry says. “I always want people, when they see me on-screen, to realize that I’m an actual person, that this is an actual person somewhere, that this is actually somebody that exists. This is a human, fully realized.”” premiered in late 2016, the critically acclaimed series was a shot in the arm. Adopting a surrealist tone at times, it follows Alfred and his cousin, Earnest “Earn” Marks , who manages the rapper’s career.
