No abuse intended here since I have just sent another question a couple of weeks ago. But I think this will be relatively easy for you guys to solve.

I am trying to figure out who the actor is in this ukiyo-e from 国升."

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately, I cannot find a kabuki actor by that name.

With regards,
I.Nagy

Dear I.Nagy,
I appretiated you take your time to find this actors name. Maybe he could be some less known personality from Edo period.

Thank you. I am glad to know the transcription of his name, anyway.
A hug from Brazil

Correction,
From the beginning, I had some doubts about the non conventional cursive style of the first character. Then I had a flash of inspiration as I looked at it several times carefully.
This is the name of a character from the Nanso Satomi Hakkenden (南総里見八犬傳　‐The Chronicles of the Eight Dog Heroes of the Satomi Clan) and it reads,
金鞠大亮　Kanamari Daisuke
(Daisuke is written sometimes 大助 or 大輔）

With regards,
I.Nagy

What wonderful Mr.Nagy. Many thanks to take a moment to think about this transcription. That's great.

You are the best!
A hug from Brazil
Renato
