Actresses on the cusp of making it big

Every so often I come across an actor or actress I haven’t really seen before but who has a genuine star quality.

Recently I was surfing the net while my husband watched The Umbrella Academy on Netflix when a character called “Mom” came on and I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. I can’t really describe what it was about her, she’s gorgeous but it was more than that... she just seemed to have that dynamic star quality. Has anyone else noticed her? Her name is 𝑱𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒂𝒏 𝑪𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝑹𝒐𝒃𝒃𝒊𝒏𝒔 and she seems to be on the cusp of becoming a household name.

Any other thespians you see who are about to explode on the scene / have that star quality?

Zendaya. She’s the next not too black hottie in Hollywood. The replacement of Hally Berry and way more talented than her and Zoe Kravitz.

I honestly thought that was Busy Philips after having a gastric bypass.

This does seem like a post only a mom or PR flunky could write.

Jordan Claire Robbins is 30 yrs old. That's too old to "make it"

Victoria Pedretti made an impression in her first role, The Haunting of Hill House. She’s now starring in the second season of that show as well as another Netflix hit, You. She’s only 25, so I could see her star continuing to rise.

Ana De Armas needs a breakout role to become a real star, but she’s got s few more years to find it. I remember seeing her in her English debut, a direct to VOD film called Knock Knock and thinking she had star quality.

I see Stacy Martin in a lot of prestige and indie movies and I wonder if she could be an Eva Green lite.

I agree with Julia Garner. I see her becoming more of a character actress, though.

Ana De Armas is already kind of a star. Knives Out was her breakout. Now, she's a bond girl, Marilyn Monroe and starring in movies with Ben Affleck.

I think the Duchess of Sussex. Looks, talent, brains... she's the next Meryl.

From the first time I saw Julia Garner on the Americans I thought there was something special about her, but I would say she has pretty much arrived and is building, not on the cusp.

Probably going to shit for this, but Owen Warner on Hollyoaks I think has the potential to become a break out star, though granted his acting, mainly due to the recent writing, has been on the mediocre side. He is stunningly beautiful and is in very fit shape. He just has an incredible star quality, and when given good material the acting chops. Another young actor, who is his roommate, Billy Price, has great potential too and is riveting on screen and you can’t take your eyes off him. And a third actor, who plays Warner’s sister and Price’s best friend, Niamh Blackshaw, has great potential as well. Whoever was the casting director and brought these three aboard has a very good eye for talent.

Amandla Stenberg from the Hate U Give. I expected nothing from that movie, and instead got a charismatic performance from an actor I'd never heard of.

She was cast in Dear Evan Hansen The Movie in a supporting role, but they expanded the role for her and gave her a song. They'd be nuts not to.

I don’t know I think Tom Holland seems to be proving that he can handle substantive roles once the Spider-Man gig is up. Perhaps he want the roles that are being offered to Timothee.

I agree r17 especially about Billy Price.

Grace Van Dien (daughter of Casper Van Dien from Starship Troopers) is so pretty. I don’t know if she can act, but I imagine her upcoming role on Stranger Things should continue to increase her profile.
