American actor and comedian, best known for films such Beverly Hills Cop, Shrek, Dreamgirls, Trading Places, Coming to America and The Golden Child. In a biography he was quoted mentioning his height and weight: "I was 185 pounds at one time. I'm 5 foot 10 and weigh 170 pounds now."

Originally, the character [in I-Spy] was a basketball player and I was like, 'No, no, no, let's make this guy a boxer! ' Cause, first of all, I'm only five foot 10 inches. I'm not going to be able to make you think I'm the best basketball player that ever existed and I can't play basketball.'
