His lauded portrayal of the soul icon and musical performance of original song “Speak Now” earned him multiple awards and nominations. Additional film and television credits include Rian Johnson’s record-breaking 2022 Knives Out sequel\, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery\, for Netflix\, The Many Saints of Newark\, a prequel to David Chase’s award-winning HBO series The Sopranos\, Apple TV+’s Central Park (2020 Emmy nomination)\, Hamilton  on Disney+ (2021 Emmy nomination)\, host of “The Tony Awards Present: Broadway’s Back!” on CBS (2022 Emmy nomination)\, Abbott Elementary\, The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder\, Harriet\, and many more. \nIn March 2018\, Odom added the title of author to his resume with the release of his book – Failing Up: How to Take Risks\, Aim Higher and Never Stop Learning\, which was recently released in paperback in March 2025. Co-written with Nicolette Robinson\, Odom’s first children’s book\, I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know\, was published by Feiwel & Friends in March 2023. The book debuted on the New York Times bestseller list at #7 in its first week. Odom has released six full-length albums.
