Latavius “Lala” Johnson, played by William Catlett, is a member of The 100 who ends up facing the wrath of Tobias Whale for his failure to defeat Black Lightning. But his death doesn’t mean the end of him — in a strange series of events, he’s resurrected, facing a very different life than the one he lead before.
Catlett is a jack of all trades in the film industry. When he’s not in front of the camera, Catlett also works as a producer, writer, and director. He was the writer and producer behind the 2019 short film Malcolm, which explores what Malcolm X might say about politics and civil rights today. He played Charles on the TV series First, where he also worked to produce the first few episodes. In addition, he played Yasir on the series Love Is_, while writing the script for the episode “Supportive.”
Clearly, Catlett likes to have lots of creative control over his projects, and he doesn’t shy away from hard work. He’s already wrapped up shooting for two new projects: the action film Force of Nature and the upcoming TV series Lovecraft County.
