He was probably my favourite character in The Wire and was absolutely superb. A very sad loss.
RIP.

Yeah he was good in Hap & Leonard too. He was miscast as Leonard in his stature and look but not to the show’s entire detriment, as on the plus side he nailed the character’s attitude and he really grew on me in the role. Looks like he died of a drug overdose.  RIP Michael. |

Yes, I didn’t realise how close to real life his character was in The Wire - minus the killings, obviously. There was an article I read where he said he’d wake up in an abandoned apartment block after a 3 day drug binge with no recollection of how he got there and could just about remember trading his mobile phone for drugs because he was skint. The dealers actually used to call him Omar.
