Who believes that?
Has Hounsou worked on his craft ? I don't hear a different accent, ever. He doesn't seem to be able to play anything besides man meat.
Did he train in theater ? Where ?
Or, does he just show up to play dark skinned action extras ?
The problem is, he can't act.
He plays dark man meat in each film he does. He doesn't really have verbal skills.
Stop whining and get a new agent.
I have been watching movies for thirty years and I thought this guy was Densel Washington
He first appeared in a Janet Jackson music video.
How?
Racism, Racism and more Racism…a different agent is not the answer. The darker a Black person is, the worse you are treated by white institutions. It happens in every area of people activity. You don't see light close to white Blacks complaining about pay. Pushing back won't help.
Not even White Delinquency loves someone who will willingly degrade themselves. Tarzan was degrading. And SPOILER ALERT…playing Wonder Woman was degrading not woke. Maybe they suggested it just to see if he would do it.
If you note actors regardless of color that can't get around their accent don't make much and usually have their own culture to rely on for movies like Tony Leung . Our Motherland exports a trillion dollars a month in natural resources
So there should be more then just Nollywood from Nigeria there.
To these white producers he’s the“African guy”
When people find someone who take. any job for cheap they make use of that price.
Shaka the Zulu must be a grand epic on level of a gladiator.just an idea.
Remake Shaka Zulu ,big screen ,starring this guy.
Yes Brandon, he dated Kimora. They have a whole child together. lol
That his fault he kept his mouth closed for too long. He been in the game for a min and getting dragged into big budget films yet not getting paid. 😂 He gotta be African cause fba would not play that ask Terrance Howard. Hollywood is racist
Pay this man!
He has been in a lot of stuff but it’s like the reduce almost of his roles to cameos in a sense. He shows up for 5 minutes he may say or do something profound and then he either dies or we just never see him again for most of the movies if ever. He deserves a starring or at least co starring role well he gets a high amount of screen time. Edit: I mean is this movies he has been playing in for the last 10 years. He deserve his flowers and fair share of pay.
Bka, after Amestad I remember him in "Beauty shop" with Queen Latifah but I never thought he has been around for 33 years🤔
He's definitely underrated. He doesn't fit the Hollywood profile so they give him all the shovel ready roles. He needs a buddy director like Ryan Coogler or Tarrantino that will demand he be in his projects
I get that's he's an Oscar nominated actor but Hollywood is a tough business. There are only a finite number of roles available and like the non-Hollywood world folks only want to hire their friends or people who are either popular or bring with them a built in audience. His experience in Hollywood is not unique. Thousands of working actors don't even get as far as he did and even die without realizing their dream. Ask Ke Huy Quan. He didn't work for 10 years in Hollywood before his wins in everything everywhere all at once. After his wins, we may never see him in again. In the end the problem is supply and demand. There are more actors than scripts making it very hard to break in, even harder to break out, and extremely hard to maintain that momentum professionally and publicly when you do break out.
👌🏿🇭🇹⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
He's one of these Black in very popular IP but who needs a smash of his own, like uncle Elba.
But he's in every movie ?
He needs a new agent and management team then.
So I can guarantee you right now he's been paid tremendously well. He's just been very reckless with his money and at times the fame got to his head. There have been plenty of people that I know personally that have worked with Djimon and they all told me the same thing and that's that he was way too arrogant for his position and treated extras as well as staff and minor roles like they were absolutely nothing more than trash. He's greedy and thinks he deserves more than what he makes which is already a huge number.
Him and Kimora Lee was never married. But yeah, you’ve been on the rock cause they got a son & he like 14.
Well Brandon, I guess you can make that argument in some cases about your pay or you can always refuse but black people don’t have that luxury in Hollywood. Lotta time these people will just say OK we will MoveOn. It’s a tough call to make but I support this brother and he should get pay more regardless if he’s not leading man. He’s been in Way too many projects and has lended an air of prestige to everything I’ve seen him in.
Dude has given us legendary performances
This brother been around for a while now he should be getting decent pay. Sam Jackson said they pay these Africans from Britain or whatever less money than even black Americans. They also don’t complain. No sense this may have been around for over 20 years. I’m not gonna apply that to him. He has these new foreign black snake Hollywood’s print in to replace black Americans so I stand with him and he should definitely make more money.
He's a TWO-TIME Oscar nominee actor. But that just shows how worthless that is UNLESS u have an ace agent… U create and develop your own stuff. But in order to do that, yeah.. U gotta headline one or two hits first.
To me, he's the very ideal T'Challa… IF they'd made Black Panther back in early 2000s.
Always been a fan of Dijimon Hounsou… but he need a new manager if he ain't making what he thinks he should, its just crazy how he is just realizing that now!? he's almost 60 YEARS OLD!
This is mad sad
Ain't no way they not paying him right…
I almost subscribed when you started that you haven't seen "Blood Diamond" yet, then remembered neither have I😅. Seriously though, the comments from the LS Chat are on point with Djimon's & his agent negotiating his salary for projects.
Remember that fast and furious movie where they chucked him in as flash back villain? The man deserved his own movie as a protagonist.
