Larry Sexton

Larry Sexton’s career is a bit of a mixed bag, honestly, and that’s kind of what makes him interesting. A lot of folks might just know his name from the credits rolling at the end of The Oprah Winfrey Show—yeah, that one, the daytime TV juggernaut that basically shaped American talk shows forever. But if you dig a little deeper, you’ll find his name hanging around some pretty wild corners of the movie world too. Let’s talk about Acrimony, which dropped in 2018. That movie is pure Tyler Perry chaos, with Taraji P. Henson just chewing scenery left and right. Larry’s work on that project? Pretty crucial. He helped bring to life all that high-octane drama, the betrayals, the slow burn into madness—honestly, it’s the kind of movie where you end up shouting at the screen, and you have folks like Larry to thank for keeping it all tightly wound. Then there’s A Fall from Grace, which came out in 2020. Another Tyler Perry flick, loaded with twists, courtroom drama, and a whole mess of secrets you really don’t see coming. Larry was there in the trenches again, pulling the strings behind the scenes, making sure every jaw-dropping moment landed just right. So, yeah—he’s not the guy in front of the camera, but his fingerprints are all over some of the most talked-about movies and shows in the last couple decades. Not bad for a name you might’ve missed.
