Denzel Washington (born 1954) is an American actor, screenwriter, director and film producer. Although his first major role was in the classic [[Ensemble Cast]] [[Medical Drama]], ''[[St Elsewhere]]'', he has garnered much critical acclaim for his work in film since the 1990s, including for his portrayals of real-life figures, such as Steve Biko (''[[Cry Freedom]]''), [[Malcolm X]], Rubin Carter (''The Hurricane''), Melvin B. Tolson (''The Great Debaters''), Frank Lucas (''[[American Gangster (Film)|American Gangster]]'') and Herman Boone (''[[Remember the Titans]]''). In case you're wondering, he's been approached to play [[Martin Luther King]], but he's declined for fear of the [[Typecasting]] that kind of role would create. |
