Emmy Award nominee Yaphet Kotto, who has a more than 50-year career in movies, TV and theater, will make his first Wizard World appearance at Portland Comic Con, January 23-25. Though two of his most popular roles were as the chief engineer Parker in the hit film Alien and the no-nonsense Lt. Al Giardello in the acclaimed TV drama "Homicide: Life on the Street," Kotto has nearly 100 other large and small screen credits and has appeared in nearly as many plays in the U.S. and U.K.
Some of Kotto's other notable performances include his portrayal of the first African-Amerian Bond villain, "Mr. Big," in Live and Let Die, escapee "Laughlin" in the Arnold Schwarzenegger film The Running Man and "Doc" opposite Robert Englund in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare.
Welcome him to Wizard World at the Oregon Convention Center next year.
