Todd Wilkerson has perhaps one of the strangest acting jobs in America.
He’s the man who dons the plastic mask, red cape and white tights with a faux crown and spreads the gospel of Burger King.
This mascot is, well, a little creepy. But at the same time, he was wildly popular as the ad gurus for BK put him in football game, in stranger’s beds, working on skyscrapers, playing pro football, worksites, in press conferences. Well…he was everywhere.
(Check out this workplace situation.)
He’s worked on Law and Order and will be in a comedy called, the Dueling Accountant.
But while Wilkerson wears the mask of the king, his heart belongs to the King. He’s the nephew of famous Times Square preacher and World Challenge founder David Wilkerson. He even entered Bible College.
Todd has a reputation a solid and faithful Christian in the nefarious world of acting — he’s living out his faith in a profession not known for outspoken Christianity.
