I added the age stipulation to avoid the easy GOATS like Denzel, Angela Bassett, Viola Davis, & Samuel L. Jackson.

My list (in no particular order):

1. Mahershala Ali (he just makes the cut, because he'll be 50 next month)
2. John Boyega
3. Lakeith Stanfield
4. Dominique Fishback
5. Danielle Brooks
6. Damson Idris
7. John David Washington
8. Jurnee Smollett
9. Teyonah Parris
10. Johnathan Majors

Great question! Either Michael B. Jordan, Amin Joseph, or London Brown. Maybe Keke Palmer.
I would've loved to add Jason Mitchell to my list, but he got put on that Summer Jam screen for being a creep.

    I would have to think on this one for a minute cause I am out of the loop with younger actors. Like I don't watch much of anything anymore, especially when it comes to movies.

    Was going to say ldris Elba but he is 51.

    Hmm... Chiwetel Ejiofor is a good actor, he is under 50 ain't he? Trying to think of names no one mentioned.

    Chiwetel is a beast! If I see his name on something, I'll watch it!

    Seems like after “The Postman” he decided to fall back. He seems content with marriage. At least he’s not in any Gender bending roles.
    Larenz still acts. He one of the stars of "Power". His older brother Lahmard is still a working actor, too.
