The actor appeared in 'This Is Us', 'Mr. Robot' and 'Luke Cage'.
The Big Picture Ron Cephas Jones has passed away at the age of 66. Cephas Jones was mostly known for playing the role of William "Shakespeare" Hill in This Is Us, the NBC comedy that followed the lives of a single family throughout different time frames, with the narrative reflecting on the joys and difficulties of raising kids.
The role of Shakespeare in This Is Us was introduced back in 2016, when the series premiered and showed Jones' character struggling to reconcile with the Pearson family. Over the course of time, William got to talk things out with Randall , and Jones' work on the series eventually allowed him to win the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series.
When it comes to the Marvel side of things, the performer was seen in Luke Cage, where he played the role of Bobby Fish. Back when Netflix was busy producing television series based on the characters coming straight from the comic book pages, Cephas Jones' character was constantly seen in the same barbershop where the titular character usually visited when he needed advice, or someone to help him take care of his beard.
A Beautiful Legacy Left Behind Jones' daughter, Jasmine Cephas Jones, also dedicated her life to the performing arts, and she is known all over the world for playing the roles of Peggy Schuyler and Mariah Reynolds in the blockbuster Broadway sensation, Hamilton. Ron Cephas Jones' legacy will continue through his daughter, and the many recorded performances audiences will forever be able to watch and enjoy.
