The film received mixed reviews, with Roger Ebert writing that Singleton “uses familiar kinds of characters and then asks hard questions about them.” That is on full display with Epps’ character and his nuanced performance.

Soon, another dead resident returns, and they warn more are coming. Epps has a tough role as an outsider who sees the unexplained happening and has to figure out how to deal with the phenomenon.

He also works to win over Kanan as his father, while also trying to shut down Kanan’s mother’s drug empire.

Arguably, the most important role of Omar Epps’ career came when he signed on to the medical drama series, House. The series was mostly a case-of-the-week drama series with a brilliant doctor and his handpicked team of experts. Epps plays one of those experts, Dr. Eric Foreman. House chose Foreman because he knew that this was a man who would question every decision he made, and he knew that would only make them all a better team in the long run.
House’s team imploded as the series wore on, but Dr. Foreman thrived after the fact and ended up given complete authority over the hospital by the time the series ended. Foreman, as much as House, was a major player in the show for the entire series run and Epps proved he could be a major television star in this role. House is a big reason that Omar Epps has remained one of the most in-demand TV actors of the 21st century.
