Whitaker’s first lead role came in Bird (1988), directed by Clint Eastwood. His portrayal of jazz musician Charlie ‘Bird’ Parker won him plaudits from critics and a Best Actor Award at the 1988 Cannes Film Festival. He also won praise for his role as a soldier in The Crying Game (1992). During the early 2000s he starred in thriller movies such as Phone Booth (2002) with Colin Farrell and Panic Room (2002) with Jodie Foster.
