Kingsley Ben-Adir Has Already Won

Kingsley Ben-Adir is trying to explain why he doesn't want to win the EE Bafta Rising Star award, for which he is nominated for his performance in Regina King's One Night in Miami.

It does make sense if you'll hear him out. "I’m a big fan of Bukky [Bakray's] work on Rocks," says the actor. "I’m 34 and that’s the first time I’ve seen girls who I grew up with represented in a way that was to do with friendship and love and positivity.

It was just so joyful to watch girls from quote-unquote 'the ends' represented in such a beautiful way. I’ve been really trying to do as little press as I can since those nominations came out because I really want her to win," he laughs.
