Tessa Thompson

actor Tessa Thompson. She's starring in the new limited series "His & Hers," a true crime thriller on Netflix. She's known for her roles in "Dear White People," "Creed," "Thor: Ragnarok" and other Marvel movies, "Sorry To Bother You" and "Passing." For the "Creed" films, she cowrote and performed all of her character Bianca's songs.

DaCosta's latest film, Hedda, is personal, a project she wrote years ago and couldn't shake. In it, she reimagines Henrik Ibsen's 1891 play, Hedda Gabler, recasting the main character as a queer, mixed-race Black woman and transporting the action to a 1950s English manor.
