Tyshon Freeman Talks ‘BMF’ & Future Acting Aspirations

Tyshon Freeman @tyshonfreemanofficial didn’t set out to play “Hoop” on STARZ’ BMF, but after landing the role, he took off and ran with it.

“Hoop is a jokester; he likes cracking jokes, but he’s also a glue character,” said Freeman. “He’s trying to keep the brothers together, he’s trying to hold everything together. I wanted to lean moreso into the care of Hoop, other than the gangster—the gangster stuff is just gonna come, especially if you threaten someone you care about.”

 

The actor also told BOSSIP what it’s really like being a Black actor in Hollywood and his acting aspirations.
