I like working with an actor who doesn't do the oneupmanship. One who has no trick and gives a true, honest performance.

They do the soaps differently in Mexico. You just have to know the storyline and not memorize the lines. There would be someone feeding you lines while you were performing.

As a Latino growing up in Spanish harlem, it's not easy trying not to be hot-headed.

I always loved Ponch, man. It was so much fun to be him, to put on my duds and get on that bike and bust the bad guys and help out the kids. And get the babes.

I do get a lot of mail. I get a lot of foreign mail because my mail gets mixed with Emilio Estevez.

An hour of my time is a tiny price to pay for all the support I've gotten from my fans.

My grandfather taught me generosity. He sold snow cones in Harlem. I went with him at 5 and he let me hand out the change and snow cones. I learned a lot in the couple of years that we did that.
