Lasha Chitadze

Lasha Chitadze has been popping up in some pretty buzzy films lately—if you’re even a little bit into thrillers or dramas, his name’s probably come across your screen. He brings this sort of gritty, magnetic presence that sticks with you, especially after watching Blood Red. That one’s not your run-of-the-mill crime flick, by the way; it dives deep into the underbelly of, well, everything—crime, corruption, the whole nine yards. Lasha’s character? He’s not exactly a hero, but you can’t help rooting for him, even when he’s in way over his head. Then there’s Tatami from 2023. That movie’s a whole different beast. It’s more of a slow-burn, but trust me, the tension’s real. Lasha slips into his role so naturally that you pretty much forget he’s acting at all. He plays a character balancing tradition and survival, set against this backdrop of political chaos. There’s a lot of emotion bubbling under the surface, and he nails those moments when words aren’t even needed. Don’t sleep on The Bricklayer either. It’s got secrets, betrayals, and more twists than a bag of pretzels. Lasha does this thing where he’ll give you a look, and suddenly you know a whole backstory without him saying a word. He’s got range, that guy. If you’re scouting for actors who can do dark, complicated, and a little bit mysterious, you’re in the right place.
