Montgomery Actor Deonta Lamar Announces New Films and Lands Role as Surgeon in “5 Lil Penguins”

Local Montgomery actor and community mentor Deonta Lamar continues his rising entertainment career with two new projects now gaining momentum across multiple media outlets.

Lamar, known for his work in independent films and recent Amazon projects, has officially joined the cast of “5 Lil Penguins” as a doctor/surgeon. The true-crime drama series—based loosely on real events in Birmingham—follows neighborhood figure Jayvion Monroe as he fights to escape a cycle of violence, corruption, and self-discovery. Lamar appears in key hospital scenes that help push the emotional arc of the storyline forward.

This follows the excitement surrounding his original film “Masked Halo,” a creative project written and developed in Alabama, now beginning to attract attention from entertainment blogs and local media.

Beyond acting, Lamar stays active mentoring youth in Montgomery, promoting positive role models, and encouraging young people to pursue their own talents in arts, sports, and media.
