DC Douglas: Versatile Character Actor in Film, TV, and Voice Acting
D.C. Douglas, a renowned American actor and voice actor, has had an extensive career spanning over three decades in film, television, and voice acting. Born in Berkeley, California, Douglas discovered his passion for acting at the tender age of seven after watching an episode of “Hollywood and the Stars.” His career began to take off after he moved to Los Angeles in 1985.
Douglas’ journey in the entertainment industry started with his graduation from the Estelle Harman Actors Workshop, the only accredited acting trade school in Los Angeles at the time. He co-founded the improvisation troupe Section Eight and was a member of Theatre of NOTE for several years. During the 1990s, he produced and performed in various Equity Waiver 99-seat Theatre productions, including “Some Things You Need to Know Before the World Ends (A Final Evening with the Illuminati)” at the Hollywood United Methodist Church, which became an LA Weekly “Pick-of-the-Week.”
TV Actor: D.C. Douglas
Douglas made his television debut with a small role on the hit ABC 90’s sitcom “Coach.” Despite his lines being cut from the final broadcast, he continued to pursue acting opportunities, landing sporadic co-star roles before securing a recurring role as D.C. in the NBC series “Boston Common” in 1996.
Throughout his television career, Douglas has portrayed conservative or antagonistic roles in numerous popular shows, including “24,” “Star Trek: Enterprise,” “NYPD Blue,” “ER,” “Charmed,” “Without a Trace,” “NCIS,” “Criminal Minds,” “Castle,” and “The Encounter.” In 2015, he was cast as Pa Kettle in the SyFy show “Z Nation” for a three-episode arc.
Soap Opera Actor: D.C. Douglas
Douglas has made guest appearances on many Los Angeles-based soap operas. Some notable roles include the manipulative Bellman in a 1991 “Days of Our Lives” honeymoon arc and two different characters on “The Young and The Restless” – Chad Atherton in a 1996 arc and Kurz, a crime boss, in a 2014 arc. By 2017, Douglas had appeared on “The Bold and The Beautiful” 26 times over 20 years, portraying six different roles.
Film Actor: D.C. Douglas
Douglas’ first film role was in 1989’s “Future Force” alongside David Carradine. He has since appeared in various films, showcasing his range as an actor. Highlights include roles as a possessed ghost hunter in “Black Ops” with Lance Henriksen, “Dad” in “Smartass” with Joey King, a deranged cop in “Helen Alone” with Priscilla Barnes, and a harried producer in “Labor Pains” with Lindsay Lohan.
In 2013, Douglas was cast as a serial killer in “Apocalypse Kiss,” where he altered his appearance to resemble Albert Wesker, a villain from the “Resident Evil” video game franchise, as a nod to his voice acting work. The producers appreciated this homage.
Douglas has had a long-standing relationship with The Asylum, appearing in ten of their films since 2002. Notable roles include the hapless ship captain in “Titanic II,” Bud in “Sharknado 2,” and the Aquarium tour guide in “Aquarium of the Dead.”
In 2015, Douglas collaborated on the concept for “Isle of the Dead,” which he pitched to The Asylum’s producers. The film was completed in 2016, with Douglas starring as Aiden Wexler alongside Joey Lawrence and Maryse Mizanin, and aired on the SyFy network.
Most recently, in 2021, Douglas announced his intention to reboot his acting career with a focus on independent cinema. He was cast in three Lifetime Network films: “The Killer in My Backyard,” “Killer Stepmom,” and “Drowning In Secrets.” — TSG Management
