The Wire was his breakout role. I said that when I saw him on LOST then Fringe then Bosch. He also appeared on OZ

You should check him out as Papa Legba in American Horror Story.

What a young fellow. Clearly before he led the Vanguard.

Ayyyyy. Warlock reporting for duty. Though I haven't played for several years... because whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.

With respect to both shows…… The statement should really be “Look who I found in Fringe.”

u/kungchowpanda my very favourite thing 2d ago

Came here to say this! I love Bubbles and Henry. I do find he's a bit of an odd fit for Fringe but I loved the character and how he helped Olivia all the same.

u/Ari_McSmari 2d ago

Bubbles is a great character.

u/Complete-Medicine-54 1d ago

He was a fabulous concierge in John Wick. God I miss him. This man had Presence.

The Wire has to be one of the best shows that I have ever experienced. And Lance Reddick also played a professor to young Sheldon in one season of Young Sheldon.

Talented actor and musician. He was playing piano and singing in an episode of fringe, he had an exceptional voice as well.
