Bow Wow is amazing in this film, ... I always like to say, 'If you can't picture someone else in the film, then that person did a phenomenal job,' and I can't really picture anybody else in the role of Xavier. He stripped himself totally of the Bow Wow character and became Xavier.
That's supposed to be next year, ... That's something that I actually wrote and produced, too.
I admire the moguls of the game. The Russell Simmons, Quincy Jones and P. Diddys of the world. They have done things that affected our culture, and I want to do the same thing.
I actually created the concept and wrote the story and produced it, so it's kind of like my baby, going from my idea to a feature film.
It was like playing cops and robbers all day long. This is a testosterone dream to drive fast cars, shoot guns and blow stuff up. It was definitely amazing.
It's just that when I filmed 'Shall We Dance' in Chicago with Jennifer Lopez, she didn't see the need to do a love scene with me.

And when you take it away from even the whole industry, it's just like those are people that need help. That's family down there. I have family members down there.
It was a testosterone dream. It was like playing cops and robbers. I was looking forward to doing something new every day.
You structure the games and then you just hope, you know, everything goes well and it plays funny.
I was attracted from day one. How could you not be attracted to someone who has a great spirit on the inside and beautiful on the outside?
