They say that if you don’t know where you come from, there is no way to really know where you are headed. So here are a few clips from my past: “Mr. 3000” (Touchstone Pictures), "Second Time Around" (UPN), "The Shield" (FX) and "Redemption" (Artisan):
I play COMMANDER TARISH, the leader of the King Konreid's (Burt Reynolds) armies,
alongside an all-star cast including: Jason Statham, Ray Liotta, Burt Reynolds, Leelee Sobieski, Claire Forlani, Kristana Lokken, John Rhys-Davies, Ron Perlman and Will Sanderson.
PLOT SUMMARY: The life of a hardworking peasant-farmer (Jason Statham) known only by his profession, as Farmer, is changed forever when a marauding bang of Krug – animalistic brutes in the thrall of an evil sorcerer – thunders down upon the unsuspecting village of Stonebridge, killing his son and kidnapping his wife, Solana (Claire Forlani). Galvanized by his grief, the once peace-loving peasant leads his mentor Norick (Ron Perlman) and his brother-in-law Bastian (Will Sanderson) in pursuit of the Krug army to free Solana.
As the Krug overrun the countryside, the King’s magus Merick (John Reyes-Davies) discovers the true source of their power: his old rival, Gallian (Ray Liotta), a formidable and power-hungry wizard. Gallian plans to use his hellish militia to overthrow King Konreid (Burt Reynolds) and place his sniveling pawn, Duke Fallow (Matthew Lillard), on the throne.
Konried’s full legions ride forth, under the direction of Commander Tarish (Brian White), to engage the bloodthirsty Krug. As Farmer, determined to find Solnana, sets off with his companions toward the treacherous mountain passes of Ebh into uncharted territory. A daring nighttime raid on a Krug encampment turns tragic when Norick and Bastian are captured and Farmer barely escapes with his life.
Desperate to find his wife and friends, Farmer joins forces with Tarish and the royal army in an epic battle against the masses of Krug. Farmer’s extraordinary heroics catch the attention of both Gallian and Merrick, who suspect there is more to the simple country squire that meets the eye.
In a final confrontation that will determine not only Farmer’s fate, but also the fate of the entire kingdom, it is be up to Farmer to claim his birthright and defeat Gallian, or allow the evil wizard to take control of the land and destroy all that Farmer has ever loved.
And STOMP THE YARD is also available NOW on DVD and Blu-ray:
PLOT SUMMARY: A young man finds that the moves he learned on the street may help him make a better life for himself in this youth-oriented musical drama. DJ Williams (Columbus Short) is a 19-year-old growing up in Los Angeles; while DJ is at heart a good kid and a gifted street dancer, he runs with a dangerous crowd, and one night an underground dance competition turns into a brawl and DJ ends up in jail. DJ's younger brother has already died a violent death, and his mother, hoping to put him back on the straight and narrow, sends DJ off to Truth University, a historically African-American college in Atlanta. At first, DJ feels like a misfit at Truth, but when he gets a chance to show off his dancing skills, he attracts the attention of two campus fraternities. Greek life is a major presence at Truth, and each year the fraternities take part in a "stepping" competition, in which the members show off their synchronized dance moves. DJ joins the Theta Nu Theta house, and is eager to help them take the championship away from their campus rivals, but in time he also comes to understand the brotherhood and community service that's a key part of his fraternity's background. DJ also has more on his mind than dancing and studying when he meets April (Meagan Good), a beautiful coed.
Cast: Columbus Short, Megan Good, Brian White, Ne-Yo, Darrin Dewitt Henson, Laz Alonso, Harry J. Lennix, Chris Brown, Valarie Pettiford, Jermaine Williams, Lil C, Sway (MTV) and April Clark.

The relationship hits a snag when the janitor's ex-wife (Tasha Smith) comes back into his life and threatens to take away their kids.
I play "Christopher" (a small supporting role) along with a truly stellar cast including: Gabrielle Union, Idris Elba, Tracee Ellis Ross, Terri J. Vaughn, Malinda Williams, Tasha Smith, Gary Sturgis, Rodney Perry and Louis Gossett, Jr.
Synopsis: Brothers Keeper is an edgy thriller that centers around Donovan Cook, a highly educated and successful business tycoon who becomes entangled in estranged brother, Emory Simms' illicit past as he battles his own demons.

Heroes
This is my hero and has been since day one. What can I say... I’m a mamma’s boy for life!
I kept hearing the "buzz" about MySpace and everyone kept saying that this is one of the best places on the web to get connected with the folks that really know "what's up!" So, I decided to stop by and check it out for myself and... I gotta say: This place is LIVE!
In the simplest terms and most convenient definitions: I'm blown away by how many people are "on" here and how well the site is organized. So many people… so much information and instant access to it all. Seriously, whoever created this site is a genius. Dammit! I wish I had the idea first. LOL! But, I kinda always knew that the internet is a place that brings people together -- from all walks of life and MySpace seems to be taking it to the next level.
I'd like to thank you for taking a moment to stop by my 'lil page here and wish you all the best and many blessings. If you are ever interested in knowing a bit more about me, please visit my official website:
