#Atkins Estimond

[1lostsoul0fishbowl]

still not a single WIP! 😖

Got tagged again in some WIP games and I still haven’t written even one solitary word ‘cause the brain just ain’t braining right these days.

So instead I present to y’all this Hightown clip featuring an adorably chubby cheeked Gwydion Lashlee-Walton being threatened by an even more adorably baby faced Atkins Estimond.

Disclaimer: I have never watched Hightown and I have absolutely no clue what’s going on here. Just saw this on instagram and decided I need “I can be sly as a motherfucker” to be my new catchphrase.

Atkins Estimond

Biography:

"Atkins Estimond is quickly making a name for himself in the entertainment industry by playing an array of characters from a doctor to a hacker, from a laidback optimist to a gangster who follows a code of ethics. He currently stars in Jerry Bruckheimer's critically acclaimed drama series, "Hightown" (STARZ) alongside Monica Raymund and James Badge Dale. Set in Provincetown, Massachusetts, the series follows a hard-partying National Marine Fisheries Service agent, Jackie Quiñones (Raymund), whose life is thrown into disarray when she discovers a body on the beach - another casualty of the opioid epidemic. She is convinced it is up to her to solve the murder, putting her at odds with Cape Cod Interagency Narcotics Unit sergeant, Ray Abruzzo (Dale). Estimond shines as Osito, a hardened gangster, who is of Haitian and Dominican decent, and is connected to the investigation. Critics have praised Estimond's performance: "the standouts include...Estimond as a killer with a philosophical cast of mind" (The New York Times) and "With every episode, Estimond adds new fascinating layers to his character" (RogerEbert.com) to name a few. Season two of "Hightown" premiered on October 17, 2021.

Estimond is also set to appear in BBC One and Netflix's four-part thriller series, "Inside Man" opposite Stanley Tucci (premiere date TBA). The series follows a prisoner on death row in the US, a Vicar in a quiet English town, and a maths teacher trapped in a cellar, as they cross paths in the most unexpected way. He is also known for his role as the eternal optimist, Gerson, in AMC's and Paul Giamatti's critically acclaimed dramedy series, "Lodge 49" alongside Wyatt Russell.

Additional television credits include recurring roles in FOX's "The Resident," Crackle's "StartUp" alongside Adam Brody, and Playstation Network's "Powers" with Sharlto Copley, as well as guest starring roles in ABC's "How to Get Away with Murder," YouTube Premium's "Step Up: High Water," truTV's "Bobcat Goldthwait's Misfits & Monsters," OWN's "Love Is_" and SundanceTV's "Hap and Leonard."

On the film side, his credits include Roadside Attractions' "Trial by Fire," Samuel Goldwyn Films' "Lila & Eve" with Jennifer Lopez and Viola Davis, Gravitas Ventures' "Folk Hero & Funny Guy" and "An Actor Prepares," Columbia Pictures' "SuperFly," Universal Pictures' "Get On Up" and his film debut in "Dumb and Dumber To" opposite Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels.

Born in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and raised in Atlanta to Haitian immigrant parents, Estimond started acting in high school productions his freshman year. His love of acting began from watching movies as a child and seeing his older brother perform in plays at the local Boys & Girls Club. After graduation, he pursued a career in music, playing guitar in a band. Then, he went on to pursue acting, booking roles in "Dumb and Dumber To" and Lifetime's hit series' "Devious Maids." Additionally, Estimond enrolled at University of North Georgia, to hone in on his craft, majoring in Theatre, while continuing to book roles in film and television. He eventually decided to pursue acting full time and has been working ever since. He hopes that by increasing his visibility that he can inspire more Haitians to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and ultimately be able to tell stories about Haiti and its rich culture.

Estimond currently resides in Atlanta with his wife, Kristen, and their two daughters. When he's not on set, he enjoys spending time with family, playing music and traveling."

Inside Man

“Episode 1”

Director: Paul McGuigan

DoP: Tony Slater Ling

[105nt]

We finished watching Inside Man. WTF. Spoilers.

.

.

.

.

They actually set it up for a second season. I was assuming the only possible end game for a detective partnership comprising an apparently jovial and unrepentant killer of 14 (or was it only 13?) women and a man who murdered his wife was that this was their last opportunity to find some kind of redemption. How wrong can you be? We're actually supposed to like them.

I don't know what I was missing from the first few episodes, because it only became apparent that we are dealing with something "sophisticated" and "darkly humourous" when the vicar's wife is taken out by a bus, like something out of Monty Python.

This subject matter might have led to something interesting in someone else's hands. But ...

At least it stops Mr Moffat plundering any more of the classics.

Jeder kann zum Mörder werden, erzählt uns aus seiner Todeszelle heraus der gefragte Kriminologe, der seine Frau ermordet und ihren Kopf abgeschnitten und versteckt hat (aber das ist eine andere Geschichte) in Gestalt von Stanley Tucci, sogar der verdammte Pfarrer im fernen England in Gestalt von David Tennant. In Steven Moffats neuem Vierteiler Inside Man, über den man jetzt natürlich nicht so viel verraten sollte. Ist aber recht aufregend. Das erinnert mich jetzt aber daran, daß ich vor einiger Zeit, zur Überprüfung meiner dann aber letztlich berechtigten Zweifel, Moffats zusammen mit seinem Sherlock-Mitautor Mark Gatiss geschreibene, etwas mutwillige Dracula-Neuausdeutung angeschaut habe. Das habe ich offensichtlich hier unterschlagen, wohl weil ich nichs rechtes dazu zu sagen wusste. Wenn ich etwas dazu gesagt hätte, wahrscheinlich: Das Beste daran ist noch Dolly Wells.

Hi! Uhm, if it's possible (totally get it if not), can you guys help me look for alternative face claims for Jack Black? I had a character that used to have him as a face claim, but I don't feel comfortable using him anymore, since he's pro-Israel. Thank you for your time, if this reached you and I hope you have a nice day or night, whatever time it might be!

Inside Man: Limited Series (2022)

Plot premise:  An American death row prisoner with a sideline in solving mysteries helps a young British journalist search for a friend who's suddenly disappeared.

Network: Netflix, BBC One Episodes (and episode length): 4 (60 mins) Creator: Steven Moffat Cast: David Tennant, Stanley Tucci, Dolly Wells, Lydia West, Lyndsey Marshal, Louis Oliver, Atkins Estimond, Dylan Baker IMDB | RottenTomatoes

± While perhaps the plot is a little bit convoluted, the performances are strong enough to make up for it. David Tennant makes me root for whatever character he's playing, regardless of moral alignment. As an experience, this short series is extremely tense, gripping, and a ride for certain.

That song they used as a theme song: God's Gonna Cut You Down by John Grant. An aces choice thematically and really adds on to the feel of the story.
