Blake Draper will star as the sole actor in “A. Rimbaud,” a biopic about French poet Arthur Rimbaud from writer-director Patrick Wang.
Draper recently starred in the Disney+ romantic comedy “Prom Pact” and Netflix’s “Clickbait.” He previously starred in Australian series “Bad Mothers” and “Neighbors.”
