Vernon Campbell (born April 4, 1961) is an American film actor. His
thick set, stocky build and bald head has seen him play almost
entirely police detectives or bodyguards.He appeared in the 1995
Academy Award-nominated film 12 Monkeys alongside Bruce Willis and
Brad Pitt. In 1997 he appeared in the film Night Falls on Manhattan a
film which starred Andy GarcÃa and James Gandolfini.He is probably
best recognized as Dave Chappelle's kind natured, ill-fated bodyguard
in an episode of Chappelle's Show: The Lost Episodes. In that
particular episode, the bodyguard is shot by the I.R.S. and in his
dying words, the guard tells Dave that it was man who shot him but
Dave's greediness is what killed him. Before his death, the guard
tries to tell Dave the key to keeping the show's material fresh but
dies before he can say it. He stammers "You gotta...You gotta...I'm
dead"
