Faizon Love (born Langston Faizon Santisima June 14, 1968) is a American actor of Afro-Cuban descent[1].
Most of Love's publicity materials state that he was born in Newark, New Jersey[2][3] But other publicity sources give his birthplace as either Santiago de Cuba[4][5] or San Diego, California.[6]
Love got his start as a
stand-up comedian and made his acting debut in an
Off-Broadway at the age of 19. His first film
Bebe's Kids had him providing the voice of
Robin Harris. Harris died before production began and Love replaced him with an accurate impression. He then had a role in
The Meteor Man starring
Robert Townsend. Townsend then cast Love in a co-starring role on his
sitcom The Parent 'Hood.
He followed up this role with a breakout performance as the drug dealer Big Worm in the film Friday in 1995. Follow-up films have included Elf, Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, Money Talks, Wonderland, The Fighting Temptations, and Idlewild.
Video gamers may know Love as the voice of
Sean "Sweet" Johnson from
Rockstar Games's
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
