He also questioned the actors’ union/guild’s on rights of professionals as “most professionals are entitled to a Pension, Gratuity, etc,” unlike actors.
“Out of her suffering an emotional breakdown, can’t eat, some sleep, I just want Ezra and Sophia and my wife… I wanna f**k out of this place right now and go home, I wanna quit, I wanna quit acting, but I’ll be a fool.
“But as they say, you don’t watch the masquerade form one position, you watch the masquerade form different positions in the market place.
“And now I’m really considering it, now I really am considering it.. for my kids and the next generation coming, selah.”
