In The Silver Fox, Damian Raven, an Emmy-nominated actor, shines brightly on the screen as Sean Hairston, a recently divorced financial analyst who is currently in a bitter custody battle with his ex-wife. The story unfolds as Sean is approached by a young, attractive coworker with a lucrative offer in a completely different line of work. Sean ultimately accepts the offer to fund his expensive legal battle, leading him to a series of events that will forever change his life.
Damian Raven has played an array of characters throughout his career. With an Emmy nomination for his starring role in The Chadwick Journals, we asked him what attracted him to the role of Sean Hairston.
Damian: ‘Sean Hairston was a great role. I was a father at the age of seventeen, and I had to fight for years to get custody of my son, which I finally did when he was five. So many fathers struggle to be a part of their children’s lives and are denied for one reason or another. The representation of what I and many others have gone through is highlighted in this story, and I found it to be valid. Sean Hairston epitomizes Black Excellence. Sean’s evolution throughout the season is full of twists and turns, and I am thrilled to take you on this ride with him.’
