Harrison Jr is about to portray B.B. King in Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic, which will also star Tom Hanks.
The role of Scar has gone to Waves star Kelvin Harrison Jr, who is also 27 years old and really started to make a name for himself in recent years. While he’s not yet a household name, you might recognize the actor if you’ve paid attention to under-the-radar hits like It Comes At Night, Monsters and Men, The High Note, Monster and The Trail of the Chicago 7; he played Fred Hampton in that last one.
