His flashy, atypical performance as a vicious murderer in Just Cause (1995) and a psychotic stalker in Asunder (1999) have also earned him positive attention. Blair Underwood stirred up a bit of controversy as director, executive producer, co-writer and star of the 30-minute dramatic film, The Second Coming (1992), in which he portrayed Jesus Christ coming back to earth as a man of color. In addition, he produced and starred in the short film, Sister, I’m Sorry (1994). Blair also has five music videos to his directing credit.
