He made his film debut at age 21 in Krush Groove (1985) and appeared that same year on One Life to Live (1968) before the role of attorney Jonathan Rollins in the hit dramatic series, L.A.

Blair’s theater credits include Measure for Measure at the 1993 New York Shakespeare Festival, as well as El Negro en Peru, The Game of Love and Chance and Love Letters.

His flashy, atypical performance as a vicious murderer in Just Cause (1995) and a psychotic stalker in Asunder (1999) have also earned him positive attention. Blair Underwood stirred up a bit of controversy as director, executive producer, co-writer and star of the 30-minute dramatic film, The Second Coming (1992), in which he portrayed Jesus Christ coming back to earth as a man of color. In addition, he produced and starred in the short film, Sister, I’m Sorry (1994). Blair also has five music videos to his directing credit.

My son had his eighth birthday recently and we had a chance to borrow the film and show it to all of his friends that was at his birthday party and they loved it. I was a little nervous. I said they might not even like it, and say his daddy's movie is wack, but they loved it.
