Billy Dee Williams is an African American actor who for a period in the 1970s followed Sidney Poitier as the most popular black actor in American films.
His first big break was in the acclaimed television movie, Brian's Song in which he played Gale Sayers. His next hit came in 1973 when he played Louis McKay in Lady Sings the Blues.
Arguably, his most famous role is Lando Calrissian, which he played in the final two movies of the epic six-film science fiction series, Star Wars. His character made appearances in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. He later reprised this role, when he lent his voice for the character in the 2002 video game Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, as well as the audio dramatization of Dark Empire.
Williams appeared in numerous other films, most recently lending his voice to Oedipus (2004). His last major film role was in 1989's Batman as district attorney Harvey Dent. Williams originally took the role knowing that it would land him in a sequel playing the supervillain Two Face, but the studio did not use him when the time came for the third installment, Batman Forever.
William's television work included a recurring guest-starring role on the short-lived show Gideon's Crossing. He was also well-known for his appearance in advertisements for Colt 45, a low-cost brand of malt liquor.
