Henry had a guest role in This Is Us in 2017, and had his film breakthrough in 2018 with roles in Steve McQueen's heist film Widows and Barry Jenkins' romantic drama If Beale Street Could Talk. He has since appeared in Child's Play (2019), Joker (2019), Godzilla vs. Kong (2021), Bullet Train (2022), and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024). He portrayed Phastos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Eternals (2021), and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for playing a grieving man in the drama film Causeway (2022). He also voiced Jefferson Davis in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and its sequel Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023) and Megatron in Transformers One (2024).
Henry has also appeared on stage, making his debut performance in the Shakespeare in the Park production of Romeo and Juliet (2007), and acting in various plays at the Public Theatre, before appearing in the original Broadway cast of The Book of Mormon (2011). In 2014, he appeared in the off-Broadway musical The Fortress of Solitude. For his performance in the 2018 Broadway revival of Kenneth Lonergan's play Lobby Hero, he received a nomination for the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play.

Among his accolades, he has a Golden Globe nomination for playing Pablo Escobar in Narcos and an Annie Award nomination for his voice-acting performance in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.
He has starred in multiple feature films in Brazil and Hollywood, including box office hits like Elite Squad, which won the Golden Bear at the 58th Berlin Internacional Film Festival. Elite Squad overseas success boosted Moura’s international recognition. In 2013 he debuts in Hollywood with the science fiction feature film Elysium, opposite Matt Damon and Jodie Foster.[1][2] In 2015, he went on to star in the series Narcos, playing drug trafficker Pablo Escobar, a role for which he was nominated for several awards, including the Golden Globe.

The movie won several awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay for Moura in different ceremonies.

Dope Thief: Brian Tyree Henry is so incredible he could invest a Philly cheesesteak with complex emotion
The Atlanta actor is the main reason to carry on watching this predictable, shootout-packed crime drama. Anyone who’s watched true-crime shows would be a better gangster than these knuckleheads
Paper Boi, Paper Boi. All about that paper, Boi.
Thanks I forgot
Wait this is a series? For some reason I thought movie
Series
My moms cousin used to do this with the radio host Star back in the 80s
Run up in NY project buildings with a DEA jacket and Walkie talkies

Is this 1 of those series that is weekly or are all episodes available?
Per Wikipedia, it looks like 2 episodes were released on March 14th.
Followed by 6 more episodes on a weekly basis from March 21st - April 25th.
Ok so I got to wait till may to watch this.. I’m a binge watcher by default now.. can’t wait for all that every week shit.. sometimes I have an opening to watch every episode on a bad weather day and I do it
Talked to a friend of mine the other day. He said - "yeah - all these different roll-outs for series. I usually wait a few weeks and mini-binge certain shows ..."
