After Menace, Tate appeared in The Inkwell, and then reunited with the Hughes Brothers in Dead Presidents. He landed the lead as Frankie Lymon in Why Do Fools Fall in Love, showing his range as an actor, as Lymon is really nothing at all like O-Dog. Now that you been out the joint two weeks don’t you think it’s about time you gave me my money? Tate later played Quincy Jones in Ray, and he currently plays Bart in the very underrated “Rescue Me.” I’m sure we will be seeing a lot more of Larenz Tate. Jackson is in Menace for about only two minutes, but his scene is as memorable as any. I probably shouldn’t have to tell you what Sam Jackson’s been up to since - it seems like he appears in at least three movies a year. That’s a trend that isn’t going to go away any time soon. I’m sure you’ll live through this movie.įollowing Menace, Jade starred with Larenz Tate in The Inkwell, followed by A Low Down Dirty Shame, a dumb Tales From the Crypt movie, and The Nutty Professor.

The role of Niobe in the Matrix sequels put Jada back in the limelight somewhat, but before that, it was her marriage to Will Smith in 1997. Jada currently appears as the title character on “Hawthorne,” but she’s been doing a lot more than just acting.

Jada helped create the band Wicked Wisdom in 2002, for which she is a singer and songwriter, and she and her husband set up the Will and Jada Smith Family Foundation, a charity that helps out inner-city youths.
