“Get Out” leading man Daniel Kaluuya may have lost the Best Actor BAFTA to Gary Oldman (“Darkest Hour”) but he picked up a nice consolation prize earlier in the evening when he received the Rising Star award from Margot Robbie and Octavia Spencer. Among his rivals for this award, which is voted on by the British public, was another Best Actor nominee: Timothee Chalamet (“Call Me By Your Name”).
Kaluuya was the first winner to enter the press room and was by far the liveliest and funniest. His natural charm and charisma were infectious during the interview and he had everyone laughing by the end of his time answering questions.
He mused on now having to take Ubers everywhere due to his ever increasing fame, as well as the fight to be noticed while working towards his goals. I asked the Oscar nominee about the high bar he has already set for himself.
