American actor Bokeem Woodbine was born on April 13, 1973. Joshua, Jason’s wayward brother, was portrayed by him in Jason’s Lyric in 1994.
In addition to being nominated for a Critics’ Choice Television Award and a Primetime Emmy Award, he received a Black Reel Award for his performance as Kansas City enforcer Mike Milligan in Fargo’s second season.
In addition, Woodbine played Herman Schultz/Shocker in the movie Spider-Man: Homecoming and Daniel in season two of the WGN television series Underground.
Woodbine made his acting debut at age 19 as a stand-in and extra in Ernest Dickerson’s directorial debut, Juice (1992), starring Tupac Shakur and Omar Epps, with the support of his actress mother.
The next year, in the CBS Schoolbreak Special “Love Off Limits,” he made his acting debut on television. Jaki Brown-Karman, a casting director, took notice of his appearance and later recommended him to Forest Whitaker for the HBO television film Strapped, which the latter was directing (1993).
He has since collaborated with a number of important African-American directors, including Spike Lee, Mario Van Peebles, and the Hughes Brothers on the movies Dead Presidents (1995), Panther (1995), and Crooklyn (1994).
