.colmandomingo has had a string of roles playing 'loving Black men,' yet this summer in 'Candyman' and 'Zola,' he explores a new side to himself in what he says is his best work yet.
Earlier this summer, he played the villainous X in “Zola,” which finally arrived in theaters this June after making a splash at Sundance 2020, and he stars as a laundromat worker called William in the much-anticipated “Candyman,” directed by Nia DaCosta, out today. Both projects see him taking on a darker character, something that happened naturally after his turn as sweeter characters inlike “If Beale Street Could Talk” and “Selma.
He calls “Zola” some of his best work, and credits that with Bravo allowing him to go where he needed to go to tap into a more wild, raw performance. Those that are familiar with Domingo’s career “can’t believe that I’m going to those places,” he says of the parts in “Zola” and “Candyman.” Yet his theater background, where he got his start before films, consisted of many villains and wild characters. “In recent years, I’ve been in these important history films, being loving Black men. And I think what’s happening is, people have to rethink what I do,” Domingo says.
“We talked about art, we talked about life, we talked about being men, being Black men. We talked about horror, the genre; we just really did a great, great heart to heart about what was important to us as artists,” Domingo says.“He was like, ‘Horror is such a fantastic genre to really get into the subversive nature of what is really on all of our minds, our deepest fears, and it’s just coming out,’” Domingo recalls.
