Lauren Forbes

Lauren Forbes isn’t just some random name buried in the credits. Her work in “Homestead” (2024) honestly has that raw, boots-on-the-ground energy you hardly see these days. That movie, by the way, packs a punch—think rural grit, families hanging on by their fingernails, and the kind of tension where you can practically taste the dust in the air. Forbes brings this layered intensity to her role, making you wonder if she’s been through it herself. Every scene feels like she’s got skin in the game. But don't even get me started on “I Still Believe” (2020). If you’ve ever had your heart busted up, this one’s for you. Forbes doesn’t just play a part—she straight-up cracks herself open on screen. There’s heartbreak, hope, music that’ll have you clutching at your chest, and she doesn’t miss a beat. She’s one of those actors who can turn a two-minute scene into something you think about for days. Then she flips the script with “Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon” (2022). Totally different vibe, but she slips into that documentary style like she’s lived it. It’s all about the legend, the darkness, the comeback, and Forbes doesn’t flinch from the gritty bits. She’s got this knack for making the past feel alive—messy, real, and absolutely worth watching. So yeah, Lauren Forbes isn’t just filling space on a movie poster. She gets under your skin, whether you’re into hard-hitting drama, a love story that hurts, or digging into a legend’s wild ride.
