About Laquan

I’m Laquan Copeland, an actor and director in animation, passionate about storytelling across screens big and small. As an actor, I’ve starred in films like Midas (STARZ), The Dirty South (PRIME), and Nineteen Summers, and appeared in shows like Grown-ish (ABC) and Issa Rae’s Project Greenlight (HBOMAX).

Behind the camera, I’ve directed animations for Warner Bros. and Bleacher Report, including the viral LeBron James Animation Coronation with over 10 million views. I’ve also collaborated on projects like Creed 3, blending my animated series Soturi into its universe.

As the creator of allblackanime and Soturi, I’m driven to showcase diverse, groundbreaking stories through animation. Whether acting or directing, my goal is to leave a lasting impact through bold, creative work.
