Oscar Grant - Fruitvale Station

Another biopic that Michael was a part of was Fruitvale Station. He stepped into the shows of Oscar Grant and played the role really well.

His character indulges in wrongdoings but try and come out of the vicious circle and improve. While he is on a journey of bettering himself, his life is taken away. The death in the movie was a highlight because Michael made it look incredibly emotional.

Killmonger - Black Panther

Michael B. Jordan's performance in Black Panther is arguably the greatest one. Taking up a villainous character, Jordan made it look so natural that people felt sympathy for him. Killmonger is somewhat bitter towards Wakanda after everything that happens with him. Michael was able to bring out that bitterness very nicely.
