** He also played a race-swapped Kingpin in ''{{Film/Daredevil 2003}}'', precisely because he was the best actor with the size they wanted, and later reprised the role for ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheNewAnimatedSeries''.

* ''{{Film/Underworld 2003}}'' has Raze, who's not only TheBrute for Lucian, but the only notable person of colour among the Lycans. His actor Creator/KevinGrevioux is known for his voice naturally being extremely deep and therefore enhancing the intimidation factor. Showing that Black creators aren't above having fun with this trope, he co-wrote the whole franchise. It's also averted with Kahn, the TokenMinority among the vampires, as he's a NiceGuy.

* ''Film/JaggedMind'': Papa Juste appears to be a tall, menacing black man with eyes which turn blank when looking at Billie. She's understandable scared when first seeing him (being black herself, this isn't due to race). However, it turns out he's a benevolent CreepyGood vodoun priest who helps Billie to stop dark magic being used on her. It doesn't help that he only speaks Haitian Creole, which Billie doesn't understand, so his trying to help her at first isn't obvious (along with his air of unintentional menace).

* ''Film/TheLastSentinel'': There is Tallis' superior, Colonel Norton as played by Keith David, an eager BloodKnight (along with his [[TalkingWeapon sapient gatling gun]]) so fond of violence it's pretty creepy. Downplayed with Tallis' TokenBlackFriend Anchilles, who kicks quite a bit of ass but is rather affable and not really scary.
