Remember the kid who was rockin’ the jheri curl in “The Wood” movie? In the film, his name was “Slim.” It was hilarious watching “Slim” and his boy, “Roland” (Trent Cameron), hype up the newcomer at their school, “Mike” (Sean Nelson), to convince him to grab the butt of  their schoolmate, “Alicia” (Malinda Williams), on the school yard during lunch.

Check Him Out Now…

Fast forward to today and actor, Duane Finley, a.k.a. “Slim” has come a long way from his jheri-curled character days. He was also hosting an online radio show, called ‘Kidds Corner’ in recent years and yep, he’s still acting every chance he gets. But scroll down to peep his main job…

Some of his most recent roles were in various television series, including some of his most recent work on All Black Network’s, “Covenent” series…

Duane Finley also co-starred in an independent television series, titled “Beauty and the Baller,” which aired on BET. He also starred in the film, “The Breaking Point,” which was directed by his former the Wood co-star, Sean Nelson…talk about coming full circle. It was good to see those brothers reconnect for that project.

Additionally, Duane linked up with reality star/singer, Ray J. Norwood, for an independent film titled, “The Pump”…

In addition to his various acting gigs, in recent years Duane became a stand-up comedian. Truth be told, he’s actually a naturally funny brotha, so the comedy realm seemed like a natural progression for him.
