Donald Faison Has Got The Goods In 'Next Day Air'

He plays J.D.'s buddy Turk on the popular TV show Scrubs; now Donald Faison is hitting the silver screen in Next Day Air.
In the film, small-time hoods Brody (Mike Epps) and Guch (Wood Harris) get into murky waters when a wacked-out courier, played by Faison, accidentally brings them a box containing 10 kilos of high-quality cocaine meant for their next-door neighbors. What ensues is a hilarious chain of events that could cost all of them their lives.
Scrubs focuses on the unique point of view of Dr. John Dorian, or "J.D." (Zach Braff), an attending physician at Sacred Heart Hospital. Faison plays Dr. Chris Turk, J.D.'s college buddy who is part of the elite surgical group, which also includes Turk's wife, the no-nonsense head nurse, Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes), as well as the beautiful, but socially awkward, Dr. Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke).
Before Scrubs' debut in 2001, Faison became known for his parts in films such as Clueless (1995) and Remember the Titans (2000). His other television appearances also include his role as Dashiell on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and additional roles on The Bernie Mac Show and Felicity.
Next Day Air hits theaters this Friday. You can catch a special episode of Scrubs tonight at 8 pm on ABC.
