  • Today I wanted to talk about the Tony Scott film Enemy of the State, and my story of how I was cast in the film. Truly a story about a different time in Hollywood, and a different casting process than what we mostly see today. I was blessed to work with the people I did at that time!

      I remember when I was big into Jamie Kennedy when I saw who I was in that movie was like "oh Steve Martin, Eddie Murphy and Jamie Kennedy! That sounds awesome." And it's such and underrated comedy .
      Also now it's cool to look back and see Robert Downey Jr having a small role in it.

    Enemy of the State was one of the first if not they first R rated movie I ever saw. My dad never let us watch R rated movies as a kid he never let us watch R rated movies but he was like “this movies important, you guys need to see these. This is what the i internet is gonna do to you guys” I cannot believe how right he was. So glad you were a part of such an important film.

    I was at the inner harbor for a high school field trip to the aquarium when you were filming. My friends and I mixed in with some extras during a scene where it was raining (they had big black tarps to make it look dark). We started walking when the person told us to go and then they yelled at us to leave after we walked through. There's probably some footage of us somewhere. 🤣

    I always tought you where to diffrent characters in the movie because some times you are clean shaven and mote styled hair and are with the henchmen and other times when you are with the hacker types of guys you have more of the same hair and beard as in scream 2. and also your character goes inn at the ending to the resturant with the other henchmen and the shotout happens and everyone dies, but then you appear at the end when you are being interrogated. So that has always confused me

    • @HonkeyKong54

      I noticed that also. He's never in movies where he's really talking to anyone who isn't already really famous. Tons of big actors I've seen in movies doing scenes with actors that aren't known very much at all but he never is. Maybe it's just the scripts people write for him I don't know.

He should have shown more appreciation for him allowing him to hide out at his off the grid home but instead exposed it with his foolishness.
