Wow, he's beautiful


Never seen him before, but he's beautiful!

The best things are last

Riz is very handsome, but I wish I hadn't made the mistake of watching him in the film "Trishna". His character was so vile and repugnant in that movie.

Yes, he certainly is! I just watched "Close Circuit" and had to look him up here. He's short, but gorgeous! And WAY out of my league! :)



You know what, Dad? Peter's gay. GAAAAAY!

I agree. When I first saw him I was absolutely stunned. He really is gorgeous; it's a shame that he isn't seen more.

He's really adorable in Nightcrawler. I empathized with his character almost immediately.

i first saw Riz in the awesome zombie show DEAD SET and was instantly struck with how beautiful/gorgeous he is. just watched NIGHTCRAWLER and low and behold he's still gorgeous! lol. he's also an excellent actor with just makes him even MORE gorgeous. :)

Just wanna agree... he's a treat to look at. Thankfully, he's got acting chops as well. Looking forward to Rogue One. Nightcrawler was good, The Night Of was absolutely addicting. I suppose I better watch the new Bourne movie as well... But jeez, he is beautiful.

Riz is very handsome, but I wish I hadn't made the mistake of watching him in the film "Trishna". His character was so vile and repugnant in that movie."Trishna" was based on the Thomas Hardy book, "Tess of the D'Urbervilles", which actually had two male characters who were involved with the main female character, Tess, who was called Trishna in the film.

Riz's Jay character was a combo of the two men.

Sweet, caring, charming, handsome Jay....basically morphed into a vile and repugnant character. I have no idea why the director chose to do this, a low budget? The concept didn't seem believable at all, unless Jay was supposed to be bipolar or mentally ill, the extreme change in personality was bizarre.

Trishna was sheltered and naive, she seemed clueless, she believed Jay truly cared for her. She was the perfect target for Jay Part 2.

Jay Part 2 was awful, he was a disgusting sexist and a rapist.

The script was mostly improvised, I have to give props to Riz and Freida Pinto for their acting....otherwise, the film, while beautifully shot and the two stars being gorgeous talented people....was extremely downbeat.

I'd enjoy seeing Riz and Freida in a more positive film, they did have chemistry.
