I didn't have the luxury of going to the four year school for acting.

I was maybe halfway through my career, and I was shooting a Nike commercial, and the director came to the trailer and said, 'Hey man, you're really gifted at this. I get a lot of athletes that come in, but you were prepared, and you made everything seem very natural. I really think you should look into this.'

As far as producing, I was thrown into it on a film called Beasts of No Nation when we were in Ghana three months after I retired.
