It's Actually Quite Criminal How 'the Wire'

I Come From An Era, In My World, Where You Just Had To Define Yourself As Who You Are And What You Do. I Happen To Be An Actor. I Happen To Be Someone That Loves To Act, That Also Likes Music, That Also Likes To Speak, And That Also Has An Opinion.

If You Go To Africa And You're White, You're Probably Not Going To Get That Much Work Either. But The Fact Is That There Is A Longer History Of Black Integration In The U.s. I Don't Have Any Resentment About This: I Did The Maths, Calculated It Against My Ambition And Decided To Leave England.

The Role Of My Agent Has Just Been To Get Me In The Room. If I Can Get In The Room - Say The Character Is Just A Charming Man Who Lives Next Door - Then I'll Walk In There And Be As Charming As I Can And They Will Think To Themselves, 'i Don't See Why We Can't Cast Him.

[sometimes] I Sit In Front Of My [gaming] Console With My Headphones On And I Play. I Love That. It's A Nice Form Of Escapism.

Africans, We Hold On To Our Youths And Whip Them Into Shape.
