 Tony Danza and Terrence Howard in Lionsgate Films' Crash - 2005
Birth Date: March 11, 1969
Birth Place: Chicago, Illinois, USA
Terrence Howard was recently crowned the new “Indie Film King” by Entertainment Weekly, after his strong lead performance in the John Singleton production “Hustle & Flow,” scheduled to be released summer 2005.
Recently he was seen delivering a stellar performance alongside Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, and Thandie Newton in the Lions Gate film “Crash.”
Keeping a powerful presence on the small screen as well, Howard was seen in early 2005 delivering a stellar performance in the critically acclaimed HBO film “Lackawanna Blues” based on Tony Award winning Ruben Santiago-Hudson's autobiographical play, directed by George C. Wolfe.
Recently, Howard completed work on the HBO/Outkast project currently titled “My Life in Idlewild.” Currently, he is filming Jim Sheridan's new film, “Get Rich or Die Tryin',” starring rap artist 50 Cent.
Howard's love for acting came naturally, through summers spent with his grandmother, New York stage actress Minnie Gentry. He later began his acting career on “The Cosby Show” after being discovered on a New York City street by a casting director.
Howard then quickly broke onto the big screen with his riveting performance in “Mr. Holland's Opus.” Howard's most memorable performances to date are of scene-stealing characters such as Cowboy in the Hughes Brothers film “Dead Presidents” and as Quentin in Malcolm D. Lee's film “The Best Man.” The latter earning him a NAACP Image Award, Independent Spirit Award nomination and a Chicago Film Critics Award nomination.
A self-taught musician Howard plays both the piano and the guitar. He displayed his musical talents opposite Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx in 2004's breakout film “Ray,” for which both actors received SAG nominations. A promising songwriter, Howard's lyrics are soon to be acquired by some of today's biggest artists.
His filmography also includes “Biker Boyz,” alongside Lawrence Fishburne, “Hart's War,” opposite Bruce Willis and Collin Farrell, “Big Momma's House,” “Glitter,” and “Angel Eyes,” with Jennifer Lopez.
