Andrew Scott, more than well known for his roles as Moriarty in Sherlock and the beloved Priest from the soul-awakening show Fleabag, could be easily visualized as characters with intense downward gazes and beautifully complex characters, twisted mindsets and darkened hearts, and done this he has. Already having amassed a fan following of a generous size, Scott has dipped his feet into the stream of crime and thrillers, ready to drop a spoonful of it in the mouths of the spectators. 

With a gift in portraying characters than seem to be of a standing outside of this world, and having played such with personas on both sides of the spectrum, making him the perfect fit for Tom Ripley the liar, in thriller series, Ripley; Scott is bound to be taking audience on a ride with this next visual issue

While Andrew Scott's visible meticulously designed characters is enough of a reason for one to promptly experience Scott's prowess at any chance given, there is obviously more to look forward too, within the show; from one, the characters utterly grey morals, with a charming and moving exterior to him, Ripley grips ones mind from the get go. The show, cinematographed by Robert Elswit, is shot beautiful enough to make one forget the premise entirely and be willingly pulled into Ripley's enchanting world. 

The show sits blatant in its story-telling that is followed, of Ripley's out and abouts as he is hired to track a certain person down to Italy, with the true give-away of the show lying in the manner it hooks itself into the nooks and crannies of the character, keeping the audience guessing and nail-biting at each turn and step that is taken by the conman Tom Ripley. The stellar production quality and true to source adaptation from The Talented Mr. Ripley by Patricia Highsmith, the home of Ripley the liar.

Andrew Scott proves with each progressing frame how well-fit and meant to be for Ripley he is, from the gritted jaw to the downturned eyes, making an uncontrollable wish to witness more of the actors prowess under finer light. 

While Ripley presents a more tight-jawed, jaded-by-the-world, and absent-hearted persona, Andrew Scott treats The Priest from Fleabag with the utmost empathy that a human can exude. However, that is absolutely not where his prowess ends. He pushes further, breaking barriers and taking on all nine main characters in Uncle Vanya, a modern-day rendition of Anton Chekhov's play. The production, which premiered in 2023, showcases the persistent and multiplying pains of its characters with remarkable depth.

While Scott's work has gained a unique kind of traction, the audience carefully nurtures the pleasure of witnessing his brilliance. He is, after all, one of a kind yet many of his own. Andrew Scott thrives in his natural habitat, an artist caught in the act, transforming each role into a mesmerizing, unforgettable experience.
