8. Abraham Attah For Beasts of No Nation
Beasts of No Nation is an incredible film that revolves around the character Abraham Attah plays, Agu, and this young actor is absolutely astounding in the role. While it is a shame Elba did not receive any recognition for his role, Attah being left behind is even more surprising. We can only hope that Young Abraham continues with his acting career and gets more roles in the future. Getting an Academy Award nomination brings attention to the project, and particularly to him, and he deserves to be showcased in that way. It would be a shame if Abraham didn’t get the opportunity to get more roles in the future just because the Academy snubbed him.
