Where Is The Cast of “The Wire” Now?

Ranked alongside Breaking Bad and The Sopranos, The Wire is recognized as one of the greatest television shows of our time. The series is full of unique, memorable characters, realistic depictions of the city of Baltimore, and the inner workings of the police, city officials, and life in the ghetto. The show became iconic not only thanks to the brilliant writing but also to the outstanding cast.

Let’s see how actors from The Wire have changed over the decades!

1. Idris Elba

These days, Elba is one of the most sought-after actors in the world, and it’s in part thanks to his role on the Wire. Of course, this was just the beginning. Soon after came movies like Thor and Prometheus, and let’s not forget Luther and The Dark Tower. Although, we should probably all forget about that last one. His next big project is James Gunn’s version of the Suicide Squad that’s coming later this year. 

2. Michael B Jordan

Speaking of the most sought-after actors, have you noticed how Michael B Jordan blew up in the past few years? Black Panther, Fantastic Four, Creed — it’s insane how talented this guy is. I can’t wait to see him in Black Panther 2 in a few years.

3. Dominic West

Years before coming on the Wire as detective Jimmy McNulty, Dominic West appeared in Star Wars: Episode I, but it wasn’t his big break. After becoming a big star on the Wire, we saw him on 300 and Tomb Raider. But you probably know him better as Prince Charles from the Crown.

4. Pablo Schreiber

Pablo’s role on the Wire was his second official credit, but it opened a lot of doors for him. You may remember him on Weeds, Orange Is the New Black, Law & Order, and of course, American Gods, where he plays a 6-foot-tall leprechaun. In 2022, we’ll see Pablo in the role of Master Chief in the Halo series.
