    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Blair Underwood


    tiffanykk2002 — 19 years ago(October 10, 2006 03:24 PM)

    Me and my mom were discussing this. It seems like Blair has been in more and more low budget films where he plays this psychotic killer, or he's a real a**hole. What happened to this guys career? He was a pretty good crossover actor, acceptable to whites. Who did he piss off?

        I think he's being more causious of the particular scripts and movies that he wants to be envolved in. Lately he's being cast as a sex symbol or love interest opposite white women, which is getting a little old to me. I feel that he's got too much talent and should be reaching higher ground.

          Yes he should be on higher ground but if we
          are waiting for Hollywood to do it; then
          we will be waiting for a long time!
          Best,
          Miss. T

            Don't think he "did" anything. Roles are just hard to come by. And unfortunately there are so few roles written for African Americans.

              Wow an actor in Hollywood that didn't become a huge star. Shocking. This never happens. Everyone who goes to Hollywood makes it huge as an actor.
              You really are quite dumb. Sh!t happens. His L.A. Law co-star Harry Hamlin crashed and burned after he left the show. Was he blacklisted? Did he piss someone off? Talent or no talent it's a tough industry schmuck.

                White suits want to star the same black men over & over. Blair should mount some indie films.
                Carpe Noctem!
