Twenty questions, round 356: five-way frenzy!

[Spartaculous]

Person A: Primarily known for military or athletics?

No.

E: born in the USA?

Yes.

[DreamTrawler]

A: Primarily known for the arts?

[Wattsthematter]

Is E primarily known for their roles as a comedian?

If yes, non free guess: John C Reilly

[Hominidae]

Is E primarily known for their roles as a comedian?

If yes, non free guess: John C Reilly

The C stands for Christopher, so it doesn't really fit with the theme.

[Spartaculous]

Is E primarily known for their roles as a comedian?

If yes, non free guess: John C Reilly

No, I would not classify E's best-known roles as comedic in nature.

A: Primarily known for the arts?

No.

[cdngooner]

[cdngooner]

E. Born 1985 or after?

Scoreboard:
DreamTrawler: 3
cdngooner: 1

[Hominidae]

E. Born 1985 or after?
If yes: Michael B Jordan

Again, doesn't fit with the theme. The B stands for Bakari, and he generally is referred to as Michael Jordan anyway. This isn't simply "people with initials".

[Spartaculous]

My apologies to Hominidae for not going in order of the letters in question. (They are in order of birth year instead.) I'll comment more about not going in order once you all figure out person E.

[Spartaculous]

Person E:
1. Real male human being.
2. Born 1820 - August 1, 1974.
3. Alive.
5. Not a winner of: a Pulitzer Prize, a Nobel Prize, or an Academy Award.
6,7,8,10: Primarily known for acting.
9: Is an English-language actor.
11. Born in the USA.
12. Not primarily known for comedic roles.

I was wondering if the letters were going to spell a word or be an anagram lol

Seems unlikely but would be funny

Whoops, just realized this is a different Michael Jordan from the most famous one. Still, my first point stands.

[DreamTrawler]

Person E: Has had notable roles in sci-fi, fantasy, or horror genre works?

[cdngooner]

E: Primarily known as an actor (perhaps to younger audiences), but is he also a musician?

If yes: Ice T.

[Spartaculous]

Person E: Has had notable roles in sci-fi, fantasy, or horror genre works?

I'm a bit tired, so I won't go through his filmography with a fine-tooth comb, but suffice it to say that the couple of roles that he is best known for are definitely not in the genres above.

E: Primarily known as an actor (perhaps to younger audiences), but is he also a musician?

If yes: Ice T.

Taking your question as literally as possible: yes, he is (or at least has been in the past) a musician, but not Ice T.

[Hominidae]

E: Born after 1955?
