W. EARL BROWN - Jimbo
In an industry full of character actors, W. Earl Brown has made his way as an actor with character...an adaptable character at that. Portraying a variety of colorful personalities has given Brown a varied career thus far. From depicting a comical disabled grown-up kid to a gritty cowboy with a conscience, Brown has experience in numerous roles. A porch in Golden Pond, Kentucky is where it all began. Listening to the animated tales of his grandfather on an old front porch, Brown let his young imagination run wild -- and it never came back. Creative thinking and constant reinvention is what has allowed him to create some of his most memorable characters.
Auditioning for director Wes Craven was a milestone for Brown when it lead to a role in Wes Craven's New Nightmare and then Craven's A Vampire In Brooklyn.
Next up for Brown was a part in the original Scream. A few short years later he landed a coveted role alongside Cameron Diaz in There's Something About Mary. Infamous for its display of physical comedy, Brown was unforgettable as Diaz's mentally-challenged brother, 'Warren,' in this side-splittingly funny role.
Along the way have been numerous television roles, including spots on Six Feet Under, The X Files, NYPD Blue, CSI, and a recurring role in Push, NV. He was cast in the films Deep Impact and Kiss The Girls, and was featured in the Oscar-nominated Being John Malkovich.
Working on set with Billy Bob Thornton and Dennis Quaid for The Alamo took the cowboy role to the big screen. In addition to his developing role on Deadwood, next up are more roles on the big screen with Killer Diller and The Last Shot.
