Elijah Kelley Movies
Multifaceted performer
Elijah Kelley debuted on camera in his early teens, initially with bit parts that included roles in the racially-themed drama
A Lesson Before Dying (1999) and the prime-time cop drama
The Shield.
Kelley's enduring passions and most heightened gifts, however, lay in dancing and vocal performance -- gifts he showcased with great aplomb in two successive projects: the dance-themed drama
Take the Lead (2006) and the blockbuster movie musical
Hairspray (2007). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
