British actor Trevor a Toussaint (sometimes billed as Trevor A. Toussaint) died on Jan. 11. He was 65.

Toussaint was also seen in such films and TV shows as Death in Paradise, Nine Nights, Sulfur and White, and Dreaming Whilst Black. His Hollyoaks costar Kéllé Bryan wrote that “He wore his waist-length dreads with pride for over 10 year’s fighting against every stereotype. Once asked to cut them in order to book a lucrative role. He forthrightly said ‘no.’ He broke many boundaries and made a pathway for others.”
