Funny Thing, You Said IT, Because there’s Reverend (Raphael) Warnock, who’s the Head of Martin Luther’s Baptist Church in Atlanta.

I did a TV Movie Called ‘Walking Shadow’ (2001) with Joey Montagna Playing the Lead as Spencer, but i Played the Role of Hawk, and My Head Was Shaved. I’ve Worked Many Times with a shaved head, and on this show (‘Boston Blue’), I wanted to shave my head. I Told the Producers.

Our take on Ernie Hudson Auditioning for Sisko’s Role on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Ernie Hudson Being One of the Actors Who Auditioned and Was Consider for the Role of Commander Sisko in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is a fascinating revelation. Hudson was already beloved for gHostbustersand if Cast, he could have brought that the mainstream audience to Star Trek.
Its Also Interesting That Hudson Initially Didn’t Believe Star Trek: Deep Space Nine‘s Producers were serious that they are well “Going to make the Captain a Black Guy.” While an African-American Series Lead Did Manifest For Ds9, It took Three Seasons for Commander Sisko to Be Promoted to Captain.
Of Course, Averry Brooks Did Stellar and Unforgetable Work As Captain Sisko, and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Fans Still Yearn for Him to Reprise the Role, Although Brooks Has Retrired From Acting.
Meanwhile, Ernie Hudson, WHO IS 79, SEEMS AGEHESS AS CONTINES TO BE CAST IN HIGH-PROFILE LIKE ROVERS Boston Blue. Somewhere in the multivever, howver, there may be an alternate reality where Ernie hudson played CAPTAIN SISKO ON Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
