Cuba Gooding Jr.
He is american actor who has starred in many movies. His charater O.J Simpson has a similar story to the case of Tom Robersion. His charater is the one being trailed and getting many reviews. The two stories both deal with injuries and tragic love. He can show the fear of being in prison for many years and the worry that he might be fond guilty. He states this show has taught him how about racism was a big deal in the case. Which shows he would understand the charater tom robinson side of the story and how he feels. It would be easy for to act because he already deals with that as the charater of o.j. simopson.
