As of December 2015, Jackson has appeared in over one hundred films with a cumulative worldwide box-office gross of approximately $8.6 billion to date. Jackson's breakthrough role was Gator, a crack addict, in the Spike Lee-directed Jungle Fever (1991), for which Jackson won a special jury prize for best supporting actor at the Cannes Film Festival.[1]
Later, Jackson was cast in starring roles in Amos & Andrew (1993), Pulp Fiction (1994), The Great White Hype (1996), A Time to Kill (1996) and The Negotiator (1998).[2] In 1999, Jackson started playing the recurring character Mace Windu in both the Star Wars prequel trilogy[3] and in the animated film Star Wars: The Clone Wars[4] In 2000, he had the lead in the remake of Shaft,[5] and subsequently starred in S.W.A.T.,[6] Coach Carter,[7] Snakes on a Plane[8] and Lakeview Terrace, among other films.
