Williams has appeared in a real bundle of roles, having been credited more than 40 times, making him a true veteran actor by this point.
His first credit role was as the Little Creature in 1985s Boggy Creek II: And The Legend Continues, the role didn’t truly catapult his career off, and it was more than a decade before Williams got another chance to act, but then in 1996, his career truly took off after he played Robbie in the 1996 movie The Preacher’s Wife, while also appearing in an episode of Homicide: Life on the Streets as Ishmael Alh-Hadj in the 1996 episode Scene of the Crime.
