Forest Whitaker

Forest Whitaker does not look for the spotlight, but it always seems to find him. He was a high school football star in Southern California, a talented young opera singer in college and now he is one of Hollywood’s most respected actors. In this week’s “Sunday Sitdown,” Willie Geist gets together with the Academy Award winner to talk about his career from The Color of Money to The Butler, and his latest role as a crime boss in the hit show Godfather of Harlem.
