Afemo Omilami
Afemo Omilami
Character actor Afemo Omilami built a career out of portraying gritty, urban types in Hollywood features, often with an aggressive edge - such as taxi drivers, longshoremen, barkeeps, drill sergeants and angry spouses. Omilami debuted onscreen in the late 1970s and evolved into an increasingly common screen presence as the years passed. The dozens of projects in which he appeared include: the Tom Hanks-Shelley Long disaster comedy The Money Pit (1986), the Sydney Pollack-directed legal thriller The Firm (1993), Best Picture-winner Forrest Gump (1994) (as a screaming drill sergeant), and the Ray Charles biopic Ray (2004). In 2007, Omilami joined the cast of director Deborah Kampmeier's rape-themed period drama Hounddog. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
