But most audiences likely first met him on the addictive drama How To Get Away With Murder, where he played the savvy yet self-conscious tech whiz Oliver.A post shared by Conrad Ricamora (@conradricamora)His latest role is on Hulu’s sharply funny and brutally honest How To Die Alone, created by and starring Natasha Rothwell, about an airline employee who begins to question her life choices after a brush with death.
Ricamora plays Rory, the supposed gay “bestie” to Rothwell’s Mel, who he sees as the complete opposite of someone like How To Get Away With Murder‘s buttoned-up Oliver:“[Rory] has many, many opinions and says all of them. Being able to play somebody that’s messy was such a treat after six years of Murder,” the actor shares with Queerty.
