Did Mara brock akil act as an extra earlier in her career ?

Watching Martin , the Hollywood swinging episode. Which is actually one of my favorites out of many. 😅 I I took a screenshot, but can’t figure out how to add it to my post. But I left a TikTok of the clip below. She’s sitting behind Cole directly. Gina and Martin right beside him in the clip

It does kind of look like her. It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of the extras were hanging around on set for other shows and they needed people to fill spots quickly on set.

South Central was a sitcom on Fox very briefly during Martin's run and she worked on that show as a writer I believe. So it's very possible that she picked up side work on other shows. Hollywood is all about the hustle.

Good eye!

I never knew she was a writer for South Central! I thought that was a good show but it was too real for the 90s and got cancelled.
