Cecil Glenn is an established African-American actor and voiceover artist who burst onto the global stage with the hit “Whoomp! (There It Is)” as part of the hip-hop duo Tag Team. He is a true classic. His recent GEICO national commercial introduced new younger generations of fans to Glenn and this iconic song by spoofing it to “Scoop! There It Is!” and has received wide acclaim by several media outlets, including being recognized on the cover of Adweek and as the No. 1 ad of 2021. Glenn can transcend through different age groups, walks of life, and even foreign cultures simply by the energy in his spirit. He applies the same focus, motivation, and craftsmanship into every acting role he has taken on. His body of work can be seen in several upcoming projects, including “P-Valley” (STARZ), “Games People Play” (BET), “Dynasty” (CW), and the upcoming feature film “The Re-Education of Molly Singer.” When he’s not filming, Glenn is busy with voiceover work on many commercial, animation, and movie trailer projects. He also perfects his craft by working behind the scenes as a writer. Glenn’s musical talents can be heard in many major films, including “Elf,” “Addams Family Values,” “Rio,” “Shark Tale,” and “Pitch Perfect.” He can also be heard as a guest on several podcasts. Born in Chicago, Illinois, to a loving, hardworking family, Glenn got his start as a performer playing in a band and singing in high school with Manual High School's Bolt Vibrations Chorus. He later became a successful DJ and became an integral part of Atlanta’s hip-hop scene. With the ambition and physical energy of a man half his age, Glenn also has twice the wisdom, and it’s that wisdom that transcends and makes his screen work powerful. As with the rest of the world, the pandemic occurred and put a halt to the entertainment industry, and Glenn used this time to learn from the best. Along with perfecting his craft, Glenn has expanded his interest database. This multifaceted entrepreneur has ventured into the new metaverse with crypto and is starting his own line of NFTs. He is also stepping into the food business with the launch of Tag Team Ice Cream.
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.
