Broderick Hunter Jr was born January 3rd, 1991. Named after his father, he grew up in a city called Fontana, California. He played basketball there for 15 years, which landed him various scholarships across the country. Choosing the University of Central Florida as his college basketball home, his career was cut short due to an injury, which resulted in him moving back home. Years later he was presented with the opportunity to model in 2010, then was signed into several markets by 2011. Well known in his early career for starring along side Ciara in her hit single music video for "Sorry", he gained notoriety for being the face of campaigns for Ralph Lauren along with gracing multiple features in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, GQ and many more. His acting career started by landing a Guest star role on HBO's Insecure starring Issa Rae in 2017. Then sitcom shows on FOX and NBC. He stars in various short films, one being "Somewhere In The Grey", which has received "Best Picture" awards and landing him "Best Lead Actor" nominations in several festivals. He stars in his most recent work is on Bet Plus' "Influence", and "California Love" with an expected release date in 2020.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
