Isaac Bae
Isaac Bae—man, this guy’s had a wild ride lately. You might’ve caught his name rolling through the credits of “Afraid” (2024). That one? Total mind-bender. It’s got all the trimmings: paranoia, uneasy tension, and a main character who can’t quite tell what’s real or just their anxious brain cooking up nightmares. Bae’s performance just nails that jittery, edge-of-your-seat vibe, like you’re stuck in a room with your own worst thoughts.
Then there’s “Unfrosted” (2024), which, let’s be real, has a title that sounds like someone forgot to finish their breakfast. But the film? Not as goofy as you’d think. It’s this quirky, off-the-wall blend of comedy and nostalgia, poking fun at the wild, sugary world of breakfast food rivalries (yes, that’s a thing). Bae slips into the ensemble like he was born for it, tossing out deadpan lines and sneaky little glances that’ll crack you up if you’re paying attention.
Can’t forget “Dear Edward” (2023) either. That one hits on a whole different level, leaning hard into the drama. It’s all about grief, connection, and those raw, messy feelings nobody wants to talk about at dinner. Bae brings this quiet, real energy to his scenes, playing off the pain and hope swirling around the story. Whether he’s front and center or holding up the background, you notice him. Not because he’s flashy—just because he keeps it real, every time.
