Actor: Andre Braugher

Andre Braugher played Frank Pembleton in Homicide: Life on the Street, and the interrogation room episode shot in real time is frequently named among the best hours of American television.

Glory gave him an early film role, and Brooklyn Nine-Nine gave him Captain Holt, playing complete deadpan against an ensemble of comedians and stealing almost every scene.

He trained at Juilliard, won two Emmys, and died in 2023 at sixty-one.
