Leslie Odom Jr.
You might know him from Red Tails, House of Lies or Supernatural, but Leslie Odom Jr. is best known to AfterElton readers as Sam Strickland on Smash. He plays the actor/singer boyfriend of Tom (Christian Borle) and together they have one of the best relationships on the show. But Sam has been off with a musical touring company so we haven't seen much of him this season. Well he returns to Smash tonight and fans of the character will be glad to know he even gets a great musical number to mark his return, a song written by series composer Marc Shaiman and lyricist Scott Whitman. This is his first solo number on the show. It's called "Let's Start (Tomorrow Night)" and you can check it out below...
Smash episode "The Bells and Whistles airs tonight at 10/9c on NBC.
Fans, also note Odom has a debut album in the works and has a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for the venture. You can find out more here. You can also follow Odom on Twitter @LeslieOdomJr
