* Sterling K. Brown compares Regé-Jean Page to a young Brad Pitt: “He has the right mix of je ne sais quoi... He’s devastatingly handsome. He speaks the King’s English beautifully. He’s going to make a really easy, seamless leap to the silver screen.”;

* Page was the breakout star of Netflix's Bridgerton, in which he played the lovable rake Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings. The actor, who has since been cast in projects like Dungeons & Dragons and The Gray Man, will not be returning for future seasons of the period drama.
