@threecolorsfilm , I’m beyond grateful to have been part of this film. Playing Troy was more than just acting - it was personal. Thank you for trusting me with this role and for shining a light on such an important story. And what a platform for my mentees - truly life-changing!
Here’s a few pics, I know I know I gotta do better lol. I just be caught in the moment.
First and foremost, my mentor @erikaalexanderthegreat is better than yours ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha cause LIKE WHAT 🤯 Secondly I need everybody to stop what you’re doing tag @mslynnwhitfield in this video. I missed Valentine’s Day yesterday but I got time today lol. Queen Lynn I would love to take you out on a date you’ll never forget ☺️. And I wouldn’t mind being your slave ( in my William Shakespeare voice) I been in love with you before I knew what love was. #IYKYK
So blow these comments up expeditiously. Let’s make this happen yall
(MY 16) A decade ago, @clairesimoncasting gave me a call that changed everything: Furly, get to Chicago! I didn't know what was happening, but I knew I had to be there. Mind you I had nowhere to lay my head but none of that mattered. GOD had me ! Scored a director's session, landed the role, and my SAG journey took flight. Claire got me 3 SAG roles in '16, and it's been an incredible journey since. This picture's special - it's about taking risks and achieving your dreams. Claire, I'll always be grateful for the chance you took on me. Take the leap, and trust you'll land!
This project hits close to home for me, as it was my first project in 3 years and I got to share the screen with my mentees, who played my sons. These two talented kids from Compton, being raised by strong Black women, are now part of a masterpiece! If I don’t do another thing, I know I did my job. That’s the work! Huge congrats to the amazing Cast & Crew who brought this to life, I’m humbled 🙏🏿. We’re headed to #slamdancefilmfestival
2025 was a journey of self-discovery, with lessons learned and growth experienced. This year taught me to value my worth, set new goals, and persevere. Relationships shifted, new connections were made, and I emerged stronger. So, hello world – I’m De’Adrian Lester, aka Furly Mac, and in 2026, I’m setting the new VIBE !
S/O @erikaalexanderthegreat for being a shining light, your impact on my life is immeasurable 🫶🏿 my Errrrr 4Life
