The internet is going crazy since a photo surfaced of Oscar winning actor Forest Whitaker and his alleged brother Kenn Whitaker. The men in the photo look identical and many people are wondering where this Kenn Whitaker has been.

Forest Whitaker Has A Brother Who Looks Exactly Like Him:

Most people know who Forest Whitaker is. He’s a legend and has been on the acting scene in Hollywood for many moons. The actor impressed audiences with his roles in films like Platoon, The Butler, Black Panther and Arrival.

Forest has been putting in excellent work for years. So talented, Forest won an Academy Award, a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award for his portrayal of dictator Idi Amin in 2006’s The Last King of Scotland. Whitaker married actress Keisha Nash in 1996 and they have two daughters. He has a son and she has a daughter from previous relationships.

It appears that Forest isn’t the only person in his family with acting skills. In fact, Forest has a brother that has been acting on the big and small screen. Recently, a picture of Oscar winning actor Forest Whitaker and his alleged brother, Kenn Whitaker, has the internet abuzz. Many people are in shock at how closely the men resemble each other. The photo shows actor Forest Whitaker next to a man who is presumably his brother, Kenn Whitaker. The men look like twins! In addition, the internet claims that Kenn Whitaker is an actor as well.

There’s just one problem with the photo. The photo shows two different images of Forest Whitaker. It appears that the Internet has struck again! Google has a picture of actor Forest Whitaker as well as his brother, Kenn Whitaker. It’s just one thing that has people confused. Under the name Kenn Whitaker is a picture of Forest. In fact, Forest Whitaker does in fact have a brother named Kenn, as well as a brother named Damon. However, they are not twins nor do they look identical. In addition to his brothers, Forest has a sister named Deborah.

As you can see, the picture is an older photo, but there is a clear distinction between Forest and Kenn. Kenn Whitaker keeps a low profile and there is not much information about him on the Internet. While we’re not sure if Kenn is in the entertainment business, Forest Whitaker’s younger brother, Damon, is in the film industry.

Forest Whitaker’s Brother Damon Is An Actor Too:

Damon Whitaker is Forest’s younger brother and he is an actor too. Like his brother Kenn, he bears a strong resemblance to Forest. Damon has often played younger versions of Forest’s characters. He has starred in movies such as Mr. Holland’s Opus, Bad Guys, Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai – as Young Ghost Dog and 12 Bucks.
