Florence Pugh, Anya Taylor-Joy, Anthony Ramos, Rege-Jean Page and Jonathan Majors are Hollywood’s newest A-Listers

According to The Hollywood Reporter, they’re the most in demand young actors in Hollywood right now, as well as Yahya Abdul-Mateen, each with many projects coming out and all of them booked for new films.

Very odd that Zendaya isn't on the list since she's actually more well known, just won an Emmy for TV Drama as a lead, and is in another mayor movie, Doom. But it doesn't matter cause this is a PR piece for girls on the cusp, minus Pugh who has serious momentum.

Zendaya will be A-list soon enough, if she isn't already. I suppose her PR team didn't feel like they needed to announce the obvious.

Where's that Timothy guy DL is obsessed with?

Most of them are Untalented-Annoying.

How does Ramos make the A list when the film he was a lead in flopped, even when people could watch it for free at home?

Is Ramos the friend from A Star is Born?

A List, no

Wow, I'm a serious movie buff and only know Pugh (who I love) and Taylor-Joy (who I don't). Don't you have to be known to be "A-list"?

by Anonymousreply 9August 12, 2021 2:01 PM

Shouldn't most people know wtf you are for you to be A-list? I have no idea who these people are. Never heard of them.

Zendaya would have been on this list if Doom had come out last fall as scheduled. She'll be on it next year.

Florence Stanley > Florence Pugh

Per the article , they are considered newly A-list because they are at the top of every casting director’s wish list . And not necessarily they're hugely popular or box-office magnet or house-hold-name. I think Zendaya is already in the A-list or used to be there - so she's not in this list.

Florence Pugh, who only got an oscar nomination because they didn't want to nominate Jennifer Lopez?

This is why Hollywood is out of touch.

Ramos was good in HBO's In Treatment.

I find Francis Pugh extremely unappealing.

[quote] Florence Pugh, who only got an oscar nomination because they didn't want to nominate Jennifer Lopez?

Given that Little Women received multiple nominations, including Best Picture, I don't think she was the one who stole a nomination from Lopez. More likely it was Kathy Bates, who was a relatively surprise nominee for Richard Jewell, a film that received no other nominations.

I'm willing to bet none of them will be consistently headlining films in the next 5 years. How many times does this game have to be played?

If this list were made in 2016, who would be on it, and how has that worked out for them? Zendaya? Tom Holland? Timothee Chalamet? All are doing well in their careers, but they've had mixed success in terms of carrying films.

R9 Why don't you like Anya? And why wasn't R19 this racist scum blocked and his comment deleted?

I like Florence Pugh; she's talented.

I've never understood Anya Taylor-Joy, but straight people seem to think her fish face is the height of beauty. Decent actor. She's already plugged into the A-list with all the high-quality productions she's been in. So she has what it takes to be a star for a very long time.

The others aren't going to last.

Florence wasn’t the surprise nominee that year, almost everyone predicted she would be nominated. Kathy Bates was the surprise nominee. No one thought that hammy performance was getting in.

As for Zendaya, she’s been considered an A-Lister since the year she was in The Greatest Showman and Spider-Man. She isn’t someone we are just hearing about recently like these others. She is a household name for a few years now.

I like Florence Pugh, but she's built like a fire hydrant...which bugs me.

by Anonymousreply 28August 12, 2021 3:05 PM

Timmy has been considered A-List since CMBYN. Like Zendaya, he isn’t some new name just coming about. He’s been working consistently for a few years now.

Anthony Ramos has nothing but love from me, a fellow Brooklyn born/raised Latino.

That poochyness in the lip area in white females that looks horsy to Americans seems to be especially prized by the British. I think it's seen as posh or aristocratic.

r24, all I can think of when I see her is the Geico gecko. And she has zero charisma.

I’ll be the judge of that.

This list is more new names that are just breaking into the next level up. Zendaya has been around for a while.

R35 correct.
