When director/producer Peter Bratt was looking for an Alfre Woodard-type to portray the character of "Evey" in Follow Me Home (1996), Neville suggested that Bratt try to get Alfre Woodard for the part. When Bratt informed him that the film's budget would not allow him to appropriately pay an actress like Alfre Woodard, Neville forwarded the script to Woodard's agent. Impressed with the script, she agreed to play the role of "Evey" without a salary.
Brother of Art Neville, Aaron Neville and Charles Neville.
