  Nice....but it's sad that Black Actors don't get the same recognition here in America...Oh, snap my bad...Black Actors are have been replaced by Rappers & Singers...Does anyone see the conspiracy lurking ? None talented Rapper/Actors = No recognition = Less Representation = No Financing = No Distribution..This is how they keep Black folks out of Hollywood.

  I agree with this comment cold hardly. It seems the point to being an Black Actor in is by being outsourced by others who didn't go through the hard work that took others to become the good actors they are. But it's even sad here with just mentioning the Irish Films and Television Academy Awards a film "The Guard" starring Don Cheadle nominated for his part in the movie The Guard that was filmed in Ireland. Wasn't even considered for a nomination in the academy awards which the Oscars. It's hard to hear that good black actors have to go where there is work,and sometimes which seems these more often going overseas to work in a film. Your comment was right to the point.
