On Memorial Day (May 30th), The History Channel History will premiere their remake of Alex Haley’s Roots (the first in a four-night, 8-hour event series), which will star Forest Whitaker, Laurence Fishburne, Anika Noni Rose, Anna Paquin, and T.I. among others. Clifford — who revealed that he will portray a new character, Cyrus — recently sat down with the network to discuss his role, which can be seen below.
