Agent K
Agent K (also known as Kay, or simply K) is a fictional MIB agent in the film Men in Black, its sequels Men in Black II and Men in Black 3, and Men in Black: The Series. Agent K is portrayed by Tommy Lee Jones in the three films and voiced by Ed O'Ross and later Gregg Berger in the animated series. Although formally known as Kevin Brown, the film's trading card series and Men in Black: The Game note Agent K's name to be Kevin Cunningham, a nod to Lowell Cunningham, creator of the comic.
In the first film, he is the agent who recruits Agent J after his first partner, Agent D, retires. He and Zed realize James Edwards' potential and they recruit him into the Men in Black. Kay noted that he admires Edwards' refusal to strictly follow authority as well the as the physical effort he exerted to catch an alien suspect. Kay exhibits a very serious demeanor, rarely joking or smiling and giving very matter-of-fact responses. His mission in the first film is to stop an alien cockroach (a "Bug" of an alien race known for their arrogant dismissal of other life-forms and who feed on carnage caused by wars) from stealing a tiny galaxy before the Bug's enemies destroy Earth to prevent the bugs gaining access to the sub-atomic energy of the galaxy. During the final confrontation with the Bug, it swallows the agents' guns. Kay decides to let the Bug swallow him so he can get his gun back, while Jay distracts him from leaving Earth on a ship. Just as the Bug is about to eat Jay, Kay shoots it from the inside. After Dr Laurel Weaver (a morgue worker who has runs in with the MIB and who the bug kidnapped) finishes it off, K requests that Agent Jay erase Kay's memories of his time with the MIB so that he can retire and reunite with a woman he had loved before joining up, J does so, after K revealed he had not been training J as his new partner, instead as his replacement.
In the MIB animated series, Agent K remained a MIB Agent and was apparently not Neuralyzed, (although it is possible he retired and returned some time later). He is Agent J's partner while Dr. Weaver has joined MIB as a Medical Doctor to work at the MIB Hospital. It is revealed early on in the series that, that a man known as Alpha was the founding Chief of MIB and K's mentor teaching K everything he needed to know; however, Alpha acquired a small device known as a Cosmic Integrator, went rogue hoping to bring down MIB. Alpha had offered K a chance to join him, refused and he left him for dead after shooting him, this incident deeply affected K and changed him as a person which possibly explains why K is a grouchy person.
Due to the release of the 2002 film Men in Black II, all events that happened in the Animated series have clearly been established as non canon.
