Antoine Fuqua (born January 19, 1966) is an American film director and film producer.
Fuqua was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After going to school for electrical engineering, with the hope of going on to fly jets in the military, Fuqua began his career directing music videos for popular artists like Toni Braxton, Coolio (his "Gangster's Paradise" music video) and Prince, and then went on to become a film director.
His first feature film was the action film The Replacement Killers (1998), starring Chow Yun Fat. He then directed the crime thriller Training Day (2001), for which star Denzel Washington won an Oscar, the action war drama Tears of the Sun (2003), the Arthurian legend film King Arthur (2004), the conspiracy action thriller Shooter (2007), the crime film Brooklyn's Finest (2010), and the action thrillers Olympus Has Fallen (2013) and The Equalizer (2014), which pairs Fuqua with Denzel Washington again.
He is perhaps best known for the award-winning film Training Day. Fuqua was scheduled to direct Prisoners, based on a storybook from Aaron Guzikowski, but left the project.

So what happens when you take a kid from Pittsburgh, PA, put him in the wrong place at the wrong time, sprinkle in some college basketball, a little Caravaggio, some Akira Kurosawa and a few rap music videos? Antoine Fuqua, director of the new action film "Olympus Has Fallen" recently sat down with mediabistroTV and told the crew how the odd mix of bad luck, athletics, an acclaimed Japanese director, and the influence of a 16th century bad boy Italian painter led him to a career as one of Hollywood's premiere action film directors. Fuqua's latest movie, "Olympus Has Fallen" opens in theaters March 22.

Esta víctima llegó
con su más linda diadema
para retirarse el pelo
y dar su cara de pena
su destino se torció
y ella prefiere dormirse
con las piernas bien dobladas
sin nunca jamás reírse
Y las amigas juegan a tula,
y ella mira sin conocerlas
sus dos pupilas se le derriten
y el corazón se marcha a la guerra.
Muñequita sin tesón,
poca gracia y sin madera
mucho eccema, poco afecto,
y un papá que le pegó
sus paredes son sin sol,
y ella prefiere dormirse
y soñar todos los rayos
para hacer una canción
A sus amigas poder cantarla
y compartirla sin pedir nada
ellas se burlan, se van con chicos
y se cuestiona el precio del alma.
El domingo va a vender
toda su vida en el rastro
y casi todas las noches
va comprando su morir
ha aprendido a contener,
el amor se inyecta en vena
y una tarde de diciembre
dice adiós sin despedir
A sus amigas, ya todas quietas,
al parque roto y al cuento de hadas
a las sirenas de policía
y a un sueño loco que le robaban.
