George O. Gore II
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George O. Gore II (born December 15, 1981 in Fort Washington, Maryland, USA) is an American actor. He is most recognized for playing the roles of Michael Kyle Jr. on the ABC sitcom My Wife and Kids, and Gregory "G" Williams on the FOX police drama New York Undercover.
Gore has been acting since the age of four. He made his debut in a Burger King commercial, and soon amassed over 20 national commercials to his credit for such leading brands as Fisher-Price and IBM. His television credits include guest roles on Law & Order and Touched by an Angel. But he is perhaps best remembered as "G," the young son of Malik Yoba's character, on the critically acclaimed drama series New York Undercover, for which he received three NAACP Image Award nominations.
Upon graduating from high school, Gore was on his way to college to study finance with dreams of becoming an investment banker. But his plans were altered and his life forever changed when he landed the coveted role of Jr. on My Wife and Kids.
Gore is totally different from his character on My Wife and Kids, which is a testament to his natural acting ability. Determined to do things on his own terms, he has plans to venture behind-the-scenes to direct and produce in the near future. He has aready directed a couple of episodes of "My Wife and Kids." He cites Ron Howard, who made the successful transition from child actor to award-winning director, as one of his role models.
