I read that as Bill Cosby first.


Bill Cobbs has been in a ton of stuff. But I still remember him for killing Wesley Snipes in New Jack City.

He was the bartender at the bar where Billy Ray Valentine invited his "friends" to come back to his house.

When he sees Billy Ray he says, ""You got a lot of nerve showing your face around here after all this time."

One of those workaholic actors - he was never a household name, but he was never not working. I remember him all the way back to Greased Lightning (1977).

That cat must have been taking 2 (or more) auditions a day over the years. Approximately 200 entries for acting in IMDB. He took small parts and bigger ones at all levels of production and budget.

RIP to a true working actor.

The Color of Money is one of my all time favorites movies and that was the first part I thought of. He was one of those guys that was just always a great addition. He also looked the same age for 40 years
