Well thing about Darrell is that he seen a lot, you know what I’m saying and you know the same thing with Jim and Mike, Christian and Freddy you know the way they, the characters are you grow up in the hood there’s a lot of things you’ve seen and you have to really play everything cool you know what I’m saying. That’s how you know a hood guy instead of someone else, nothing really excites a hood guy you know what I’m saying. And Darrell is the kind of dude that’s like yeah whatever. If a gun shot goes off he’s like hey man that’s how it is around here you know what I mean it’s like that kind of dude. And I was just happy to be able to provide a moment of levity for a movie that really needed it. It starts off dark and then it just descends and there’s a downward spiral for everyone involved and the question is will any of these guys make it out you know what I’m saying. And that’s a testament in David’s writing because he’s a brilliant writer, every moment was crafted so well and to asked to play this character was wonderful.

Well you know the thing is that, the good thing is that my sitcom is set in ? Brooklyn where there is that element of bleakness anyway you know what I mean it wasn’t too far away. You just look for the comedy side of getting robbed as apposed to looking at the sad part of getting robbed you know what I mean, it’s like all of the, it’s the same stuff. On Everybody hates Chris people you know people die people get, we had a guy in an episode where a guy was on fire you know what I mean, you just look for the funny part. Where as in this it was like whoa ok were going to treat this with a lot more you know dramatic pause you know what I mean and you know looked to serve the peace, I look to serve wherever I’m put in. I don’t want people to think this, oh that’s Terry Crews doing this, I want you to think about my character, I want you to think, you know I really want you to invest you know because if you see me, I have to say it was a lot, I did Friday After Next which is another comedic South Central story you know what I mean. Which is another version of the South Central tale but in a lot of ways it was similar, in a lot of bleak characters, a lot of people that checked out on life, a lot of decision making gone wrong and you kind of look at this and go how far, you know comedy and drama it’s a very thin line, very thin.
