I'm trying my hand at writing. I'm writing a couple of projects for HBO, a half hour comedy and a miniseries.

What I learned as an actor was the only way you could really do August Wilson's work, you had to leave an ounce of your essence on that stage,... Otherwise it was impossible.

Juan Hernandez was an actor out of New York, but what made Juan so great and what made Omar so great was that they both already knew how to box, so we didn't have to take them into a gym and teach them how to throw a left jab.

Because I killed a guy in real life, and because my character kills a guy onstage, they said I could never do anything this great again. I resented that.

I still make more money as I do as an actor than director, however I don't want to be a commercial director.

I just don't want to do a movie because it paid me a lot of money.
