You probably know Donald Faison by his face not his name, the doctor on “Scrubs” and the guy from Clueless. Faison is starring in “Next Day Air” coming out today.
Faison actually thought he wouldn’t get the role because he’s played the “white black guy” for so long and was concerned if it would be authentic! Seriously?
Would his role in the movie really keep you from watching “Next Day Air”? Remember Tristan’s character “Michael Lee” from Wire who went the opposite direction and now acts in Beverly Hills 90210 {hehe}, would you write him off as “fake” if he did another “urban” movie?
Essentially, I wonder if we put too much emphasis on people who working just like the rest of us. Does it really matter?
