What Happened!? 10 Of Our Favorite Movie And TV Characters Who Passed Away Too Soon In Real Life

- By

Carlton Williams II, aka, “Clinton” in Crooklyn 

It was a surprise to me that this actor had passed. Like most black folks, I was a huge fan of Crooklyn as a child coming from a large family, and his character was the often annoying big brother of the Carmichael clan, Clinton (he’s sitting next to Alfre Woodard’s character above). With his big glasses and love for the Knicks, Clinton used to bully around his little sister, Troy, and argue with his mother. In real life, the actor passed away in 2003 after battling with complications from Sickle Cell Anemia. He was about 24 years of age around the time of his passing.
