My Take
Mark Christopher Lawrence is exactly the kind of working actor I love digging into, a true character man who pops up everywhere. From Child's Play 3 to Crimson Tide to Garfield and The Island, his face has crossed genres for decades, and his cult turn as Tone Def in Fear of a Black Hat shows real comedic range. Add the stand-up and voice-over work and you get a performer who simply keeps the lights on by being versatile. He even maintains his own website, which I read as someone proud of the craft and the long haul. The famous faces get the posters; people like him hold films together.
