FILE - Actor Lance Reddick appears at the"White House Down" premiere in New York on June 25, 2013. Reddick, a character actor who specialized in intense, icy and possibly sinister authority figures on TV and film, including The Wire, @Fringe and the John Wick franchise, died suddenly on Friday, March 17, 2023. He was 60.
“I’m an artist at heart. I feel that I’m very good at what I do. When I went to drama school, I knew I was at least as talented as other students, but because I was a Black man and I wasn’t pretty, I knew I would have to work my butt off to be the best that I would be, and to be noticed,” he told the Los Angeles Times in 2009.
His upcoming projects include 20th Century’s remake of “White Men Can’t Jump” and “Shirley,” Netflix’s biopic of former Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm. He was also slated to appear in the “John Wick” spinoff “Ballerina,” as well as “The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial.” “I was never interested in television. I always saw it as a means to an end. Like so many actors, I was only interested in doing theater and film. But ‘Oz’ changed television. It was the beginning of HBO’s reign on quality, edgy, artistic stuff. Stuff that harkens back to great cinema of the ’60s and ’70s,” he told The Associated Press in 2011.
I was just watching him last night on Resident Evil series
A great actor. . .Rest in Heaven.
