Has Dana White acted before?

After the promotional trailer for Venom featuring the UFC was released, fans were impressed with Dana White's acting skills in the video. Sean O'Malley provided a lot of comedic support but most of the praise of the scene was for White.

Despite being one of the most recognizable faces in the MMA world, White has not ventured too far into acting. He has a couple of acting credits to his name, mostly playing himself, but had a cameo as a "goon" in the television series 'The League' in 2013.

White also appeared in 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' and 'Silicon Valley' as himself. The UFC-centric episode that he appeared in on 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia' is still a fan-favorite episode that also featured Paul Felder and Donald Cerrone.
