Christopher B. Duncan Reveals Hurt After Playing 'Braxton' On The Jamie Foxx Show

[TMC]

In this Unforgotten moment with actor Christopher B. Duncan, we dive into Duncan's career. Specifically we go on to discuss Duncan taking on the role of Braxton and how he's been hurt after some casting directors have only seen him for that role.

He said that while he appreciates the love he receives for the Braxton role and the memories it gives fans, he also said that it’s the producers who typecast him after they state he’s perfect for a role but they always see Braxton.

That is because the demographic this show and several others were geared towards didn't possess the intelligence to separate acting from reality and yes Chris was absolutely typecast. I saw him as a star quarterback on Coach while watching the dvds before he got on Jamie's awful race-baiting show.
