VERY well spoken and a role model for young black boys. He came from the hood and now he’s making moves! I pray his career gets bigger and better (50 cent should put him on an episode of power)
@@JAdoreQT123456 Damn I'm getting fed up wit all this so many people criticize and all they do is talk shit this show is funky like my armpits, I like the drama and suspense still I wanna see all tits.
dope ass actor!! The way he played Reggie I thought he was REALLY from the streets. Glad to see that young brother doing his thing and is happy to do it. look at that smile on his face it's definitely good to see with so many young brothers walking around looking so angry and frustrated
Before I saw the interview, I saw Reg and got PISSED!! For some reason I felt like it was gonna be a rough interview. My gosh that's how I know he's a great actor! This interview has caught me so off guard and this guy is so smart and articulate!
I really hope that we see him acting in more roles, I like the other guy that plays his brother as well, but I liked Reg better! I still think that Lena Waite chick got rid of the two strongest "black male" actors on the show, and I do think she intentionally killed off both Reg and Brandon for the new guy who is in love with the transgender...smh
When you see an actor who makes you emotional and you have this feeling about the character if you love or hate them, that’s a good ass actor. I love his character and kudos to this brother. He is fantastic on The Chi.
Lmao , and to think I was expecting some hood guy with some hood answers lmfao . It's hard seeing him out of character ! Good acting Reggie.. I mean Barton ! Lol .
Loved this interview, Charlemagne didn’t ask any stupid questions for once. Barton is very smart and articulate. I have agree with comments on this panel, when I saw his face I cringed at first. All I saw was Reggie the character, not the actor. That means he is doing a great job with that character! Wishing Barton much success! The ensemble of actors on the Chi are phenomenal! Especially the kids!
This guys only a little older than me and his acting career already taken off. This is what I want to do and it kind of discouraged me that I haven’t made any moves yet. I’m proud of him though.
It should be used as motivation and not discouraging. I am also an actress and also know how hard it is to book especially when you feel like you are perfect for the role but hang in there and stay in an acting class or workshop that allows you to work on characters, scenes and understanding the business of acting so you're well prepared when your time comes.
All the actors are great!!! But Barton plays Reg's character so good...when i think about characters like they are real...The actors got skills...And the fact that hes a cutie may help some😍😍😍i love the show
The failure of Chicago’s inner city starts with the lack and loss of community. If you have no community to depend on, the people will crumble and start in on themselves. That’s really where it begins.
My question is what the hell happened to The Chi? The last episode they showed a preview of the next show, then no show for the past few weeks. They never announced it as the season finale either. Showtime played this show. They need to put more behind it and allow them to make shows longer than 47 minutes. This show could be bigger than The Wire was.
VERY well spoken and a role model for young black boys. He came from the hood and now he’s making moves! I pray his career gets bigger and better (50 cent should put him on an episode of power)
They should've put u on for The Chi
💯 yeah he belong on Power!
Power is not coming back after this season
@Everyday V ghost them confirmed it
He a real dude !!!!! Chi Town!!!!!
This dude is one hell of an actor. I gives my props to him.
Damn i hate his character on the CHI ! That means he’s a good Actor ! Good to see he’s so down to earth
erickiam25 right when I seen the still shot I got mad lol
I love his character. Maybe because I personal know a former drug dealer, who acted just like him.
Who could hate Reg he's my favorite character
He one of my Favs character
Hated him season 1, but started liking more as the show went on
The chi needs more episodes. 10 is too little.
Premium cable shows rarely do more than 10, 12 at the most
Deadass if they want to keep up with power they have no choice
Season 2 coming soon
Right I feel all deprived lol
VYSS Beats exactly! Season 1 was good, but I have a feeling season 2 is gonna be amazing!
I was pissed when he pulled up on the food truck even though I knew it was going to happen!!!!
FC THREE ikr! but ole boy shouldn't have been honest about losing the gun. i would have stfu and said nothing.
FC THREE yeaaa me too! You already know shit about to go south for Brandon.. Smh
OMG! I was likeeee damnnnnn mannn, really why you gotta mess up Brandon's life like that lol
Yea the whole finale was too predictable
Right! I thought he was gonna leave Brandon alone!!
That boy need to slide to Power and work with Ghost
Reel Deal i can see that
Reel Deal Absolutely
Davan Hampton Wouldn't he be taking Dre spot tho🤔
Agreed...
that crossover would be EPIC.
No lie I was sad when they killed him on the show lol 🤷🏽♀️
The chi hands down better than any show out ❌🧢🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Good, but not better than Atlanta
ChrisWhatsThis CWT Lets not get ahead of ourselves. It’s good but not better than POWER
Right...me and my man was debating he says Empire I say nabh
Mrfukyofeelins lmaoo me & my brother was just debating about that 😭😭😭 that’s a toss up
ChrisWhatsThis CWT lol the chi def has potential so we gonna see but POWER is #1 for me right now
Somebody please tell spike lee this is how a Chicago movie suppose to be.
Spike Lee ruined his chance when he tried to portray Chicago his stupid shit was more like a circus and not telling the real stories.
Lolllll
@@JAdoreQT123456 Damn I'm getting fed up wit all this so many people criticize and all they do is talk shit this show is funky like my armpits, I like the drama and suspense still I wanna see all tits.
It's not a movie?
My Fav Top shows:

Marvin Carter anything is better than empire at this point lmao
I legit would be scared of him if
I saw him 😂 the chi casting is some real shit
We need more interviews with the Chi cast!!
Yes
dope ass actor!! The way he played Reggie I thought he was REALLY from the streets. Glad to see that young brother doing his thing and is happy to do it. look at that smile on his face it's definitely good to see with so many young brothers walking around looking so angry and frustrated
reggieeeeee!
Lynn W We could always use another shooter on 63rd........ Reggie is the worst big brother of all time😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂
That dude so handsome he needs to be on TV movies everywhere man and he good at acting may he be blessed with many roles
He is such a good actor!!!
He's always been handsome to me as Reggie, but now seeing his real life persona makes him even more handsome to me. He seems like a great guy!
He so damn fine one of my favorite characters on the chi
Man why they have to kill Reg. His character had really grown on me. 😟😔
B M I’m not gone believe he’s dead. 😩 They might be tricking us he might just end up in a coma or paralyzed 🙏🏾
@@u-knobreezy4035 Ur right! Maybe he's going to seek revenge on Dooda. Hopefully he isn't dead.
I hope n pray my boo ain't DEAD😹💙
I really don’t think his character is dead. I really hate Jason Mitchell put himself in s bad way
B M fr tho
He's one of them type of actors that seem like somebody you know for real when you see him.
Very good interview! Was glad to see the real "Reg"
he scares me on The Chi as Reg he plays that character so well 😩😂 I can’t wait for season 2 next year
The Chi is the BOMBBBB!!!!!
They finally killed him off the show that did it for me, reg was the only one I really can relate to and the little brother
Exactly
He didn’t want to kiss that transgendered actress on camera, that’s why he was killed off. And I don’t blame him, stay true to yourself
The Chi' is the new version of the Wire!
Dre Haney don’t push it
Yup the chi is the shit
They said the same thing about Power
Andrew season 2 going to have take it to another level
I said the same thing but without all the boring political stuff the wire had going on
Before I saw the interview, I saw Reg and got PISSED!! For some reason I felt like it was gonna be a rough interview. My gosh that's how I know he's a great actor! This interview has caught me so off guard and this guy is so smart and articulate!

This guy is very educated. Excellent actor. Very bright future in acting. Can’t wait to see him in more stuff. Much love and respect.
😍😍😍 I love a man that can play the role, but sophisticated😘
contradiction so you want a intelligent thug so thug have a retirement plan
P H 😂😂😂 All these guys be faking it to make it. Honestly!!!
Yesss
I there Kaila. Congratulations, because prayers have been answered. Not only can I play a complex role, I am sophisticated as hell to boot. Xoxo
Reggie is gonna be the kingpin of the chi next season.
Can't believe they killed him off
He didn't want to be in a relationship with a transgender
@@BeeBre525 yeah I know. Chi not the same cause if it. Brandon too. But we know the stupid shit he did. But The Chi not the same
@@c.j.c7919 look at Lena Waithe interview, she doesn't even know what Jason did. Lol, a bunch of bs if you ask me.
@@BeeBre525 she know she lost a co star cause of it. Brandon tv girlfriend
Dope character on the chi
I clicked straight away
Same!
I'm glad he didn't sell out to the LGBT community
Same God bless him
Good job on this interview. Great acting and casting through and through. Can't wait for season 2.

Interview Paper Boy
He's a dope actor! Much RESPECT
I knew him as a kid!
Love the show, takes me back. Chi Town baby!
The chi killed off all the good characters

Yessssssss... 😚 Barton .. whatever you wanna be called I still see him a Reg
Can't wait for season 2. They need to go harder now.
black god They're competing with POWER so they don't have a choice
This is not power it's a drama with street violence within the stories.
I fux wit Reg!!! He a real one, nailed his role man!
All the actors are great!!! But Barton plays Reg's character so good...when i think about characters like they are real...The actors got skills...And the fact that hes a cutie may help some😍😍😍i love the show
Anxious for the next season glad they kept him and cut off Trice Reg is a way better character
Dope as show... Great actor you can tell dude has range as as actor.. looking forward to Season 2 #TheChi
Bart The Actor 💜💜💜

Reg I just love me some Reg he's just sexy to me! Lol. Anywho Amen for the scholarship they teach our men they can only get sports scholarships.

Charlemagne bro you was on the low end Southside nobody call it bronsville

Thought Reggie was a top dog until I seen him get beat up by Trice haha ... Then Q put them both in their place... my nigga Q
His character grew on Me 😁
Respect The Chi
I LOVE REG!!!❤️❤️❤️...You are awesome! Keep up the good work!
he always says he grew up off madison…. umm… that’s a long ass street madison and what!!?
Big ups to Barton! Went from a local supporting role to a season regular! Chi-town stand up! 👏🏾
I love him , great representation of Chicago
We LOVE The Chi! I hate Barton's character, but I liked him when he went the play and felt bad about "Miss Ethel" getting beat. Looking forward to S.3
