Sometimes you have to make a movie to make money.

At this point, I don't get hired a lot because people don't think I could finance a movie.

I don't want to be in somebody else's movie, and then they make all the money. I've gotten offers to do the movies, but I won't sell myself short and be in somebody else's movie, like 'Boyz N the Hood.' I don't think I woulda done that.

Well, I was getting a lot of money then, and I wasn't getting any Hollywood films, so I just did those. I'd always do a play in between. Whenever I ran low on funds, I'd always rush off to do a movie somewhere.

When you makes movies, you usually make good money. But it is also a very tough job. Once you enter the public's eye, you have to be aware that you give up a huge part of your own life. And it is never a job from nine to five.

You end up giving up half your salary every time you make a movie because you need the money to make the movie you have in your head.

I've been in more than 20 movies. You just do the best you can and try to make a living.

It's very important that every movie I do makes money because I want the people that had the faith in me to get their money back.

I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
