M88 has signed actor, producer and photographer Lance Gross (“House of Payne,” “Our Kind of People”) for representation.
Gross starred in the Fox TV series “Our Kind of People,” produced by Lee Daniels, opposite Yaya DaCosta, Morris Chestnut and Joe Morton. He also won four NAACP Image Awards for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series for his role on Tyler Perry’s long-running sitcom “House of Payne.” His TV credits include CBS’ “Hawaii 5-0” and “MacGyver”; Fox’s “Star”; USA Network’s “Royal Pains” and the Amazon limited series “Too Old To Die Young” from director Nicolas Winding Refn.
On film, Gross starred opposite Jurnee Smollett, Brandy and Vanessa Williams in Tyler Perry’s “Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor.” He also appeared in the remake of “Steel Magnolias” for Lifetime, opposite Queen Latifah, Alfre Woodard, Phylicia Rashad and Jill Scott; and alongside America Ferrera, Forest Whitaker and Carlos Mencia in Fox Searchlight’s “Our Family Wedding.”
In 2017, Gross created, produced and starred in the Macro digital series “I Turned My Camera On,” which combined his love of photography with a series of celebrity interviews. The series, launched in partnership with Essence, featured guests including Michael B. Jordan, Omari Hardwick and Kelly Rowland.
In addition to M88, Gross continues to be represented by Gersh.
