I Started Acting, Almost On A Whim

'the Wire' Really Drew On A Lot Of Real-life Situations And Real-life Organizations - It Created Fiction To Make A Social Statement About Reality.

Nothing Will Ever Top 'the Wire.' It Was Historical. It Was Black Cinema.

It's Funny, 90 Percent Of What I've Done Has Been Television, And I Never Really Wanted To Do It That Much. I Was Really Interested In Film And Theater. What's Ironic Is That When I Started Doing Television, I Did A Bunch Of Amazing Shows All In A Row, Starting With The Corner.

I’m Interested Not Just In Projects That I’ll Be Starring In, But Producing Film And Tv That’s Really Quality And Great For Adults; And When I Say Great For Adults, It Doesn’t Mean Without Humor, Because I’m Also Interested In Doing Comedy.

I Feel Like My Public Life Isn't Necessarily My Own. I'm Starting To Get Used To How To Maneuver And Operate In New York In A Way That I Don't Get Stopped All The Time. I Just Pretty Much Say "thank You." But One Of The Things Is To Try To Keep Moving. Not To Stop Too Long, Because People Try To Get Into A Conversation With You All The Time. The Hardest Thing Is On The Subway, Or When People Try To Chase You Down.
