American actor known for his deep voice.
Frequently typecast as a Scary Black Man. Fortunately, he found his renaissance as a Voice Actor, from which he ganered a veritable army of devoted fans. He'll always be Goliath to us.
He is not David Keith. What he is, is an awesome singer.
Also, don't mess with his fries.
Keith David has performed in the following roles:
- Adventure Time - Flame King
- Armageddon - The Air Force general who suggests blasting the asteroid with 50 nukes.
- The Big House - Clarence Cleveland
- The Cape - Max Malini
- The Chronicles of Riddick - Abu 'Imam' al-Walid
- Community - Narrator for the episode "Pillows and Blankets, spoofing his work on Ken Burns' documentaries
- Coraline - The Cat
- Civilization V - One quote in the trailer
- Dissidia Final Fantasy and Dissidia 012: Final Fantasy - Chaos

- City Confidential, the narration of which he took over after Paul Winfield's death.
- Comic Book Superheroes: Unmasked (a documentary for the History Channel)
- Empires: Egypt's Golden Empire
- Ken Burns' Jazz (a documentary series)
- New York: A Documentary Film (the first three episodes; these were later recycled for the series The American Experience)

- The War, possibly the definitive World War II documentary in recent years
- WWE documentaries and DVDs, for which David has occasionally narrated.
