I’m excited that Osage News is also in Cannes.

Video of Leo in Cannes. He shaved. Videoleap-2E5EA102-AB81-41AC-BD9B-0870EB57D9B5.mov

The accent Leo is using is more of an Oklahoma accent than a Texas accent. Which Ernest did come from Texas and Leo is not really using a Texas accent really at all. Maybe North Texas close to Oklahoma, but that’s still a stretch. It comes down to how drawn out the vowels are, the sounds of the R, and drawn out syllable sounds.

LOL! Yeah. @Jade Bahr, I’m not sure that I could effectively explain what I hear. Oklahoma has a diverse range of accents depending on which part of the state you are in. It’s just that I was born and raised here and I have the same accent Leo is trying to portray and to my ears, it’s not quite right. It’s not bad, just not perfect and yeah, a little weird. Maybe listen to videos of Reba McIntyre, Garth Brooks, or Blake Shelton to hear Oklahoma accents.

Finally!!! Looks like it’s going to be a tough film for some of us to watch, but the trailer looks great! Leo’s accent is a little off, but still pretty damn good!

Jack would have never found Rose on that thing.

There are longer videos out there, but here is a sample. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRwd2nFA/ You know what’s good about sharing a name with Marty? I get to hear Leo say my name over and over again. 😍

They are currently filming Twister here in Oklahoma and all the daily calls for extras and speaking roles and film stuff happening all around is really making me nostalgic for when Leo was here. All of us Oklahoma indigenous people cannot wait to be able to view the completed KOTFM film.

Thank you for all the new pictures and info. He is looking hot right now, even better in the videos of the event. Hopefully, someone will post those over here soon as well.

A bit of confirmation that Leo is the lead in KOTFM.

Is this aerial shot just a really old shot, or is this an entirely different house than the one in the recent video, because the two do not match up?

Long hair for an upcoming role is what I’ve been thinking too, but who really knows. I’m just hoping for a new role soon.

I can honestly say I have never heard anyone say they are jealous of Oklahomans. That’s a first for me! 😂

Remember this interview? Djimon has a lot of respect for Leo and Leo respects Djimon. I love that when Leo realized only his name was on the invitation and not Djimon’s that he was gracious with it.

How Hounsou’s Career Has Been Affected By Systemic Hollywood Problems Unfortunately, Hounsou’s description is not shocking when tracing his acting journey. Hounsou's "very limiting” acting choices are evident by his early track record of playing slave characters. Hounsou had his big Hollywood break playing the lead in the Steven Spielberg historical drama Amistad, and in short, the succession went on to play two more slave roles in Gladiator and The Four Feathers. Hounsou’s lack of name recognition in Hollywood today further highlights his assertion that accolades do not necessarily equal financial prosperity when it comes to the film industry. By the time he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Blood Diamond, Hounsou was a two-time Oscar nominee, having been nominated for the award two years prior for In America. While Hounsou has since gotten roles in big-budget projects such as Captain Marvel and Shazam!, it took several years for his accolades to manifest in high-profile offers. Hopefully, through his roles in both Marvel and DC Films, Hounsou can continue to break free from his initial type casting. Hounsou stars as Wizard in the recently-released Shazam! Fury of the Gods and will play a role in the upcoming Zack Snyder adventure film Rebel Moon. Perhaps, Hollywood can reverse the wrongs of Blood Diamond and give Hounsou a Best Actor nomination for a future project. Source Dijmon is absolutely correct. Hollywood knows it. Leo knows it. Based on Leo’s actions, he sometimes seems embarrassed by the white, male privilege that is afforded him when he knows other just as talented actors are not able to benefit. It’s not Leo’s fault, but I’m glad he is able to show awareness of the reality. It’s also good to see Leo use his white, male privilege to bring awareness to the stories of various minority groups.

Very rarely does Leo allow the gray to show, but you can catch glimpses of it every once in awhile. When he does allow it to peep through, it’s usually in his stubble. This is one of those rare times you can not only see it in his stubble, but you can also see a tiny bit in the roots at his temples. This pic is several years old. Imagine how gray his hair must be now. I think he would look quite dashing with a little more showing through.

Brendan looking good!

Absolutely

Wonder if Leo is going to be coming back to the states for all the Oscar’s parties and stuff.

His facial hair is getting gray. I like it.

😢 I want to hug you both.

Why does he always look so lonely?

Thanks, @Jade Bahr I made some adjustments to make it easier to see.

Technically, the girl is standing by him, so does this still count?

I’m pretty sure his role is the main character. I have never heard anything about him being in a supporting role. @Jade Bahr Thanks for the David Gann info! Thanks everyone for all the new pics and info. I see Leo stood next to a girl again. 😂
