on larry king now the adelaide they had clearly artist terry crews i'm always know at the best guy in that terrible movie. i'd never ever ever thought i would ever get in a work i was the artists in the whole thing but it was one of those things where i thought it was the only way i'll especially in the city i have moments in my life of astounding immaturity and mounting on the newsnight world i have to soften him in spirit is empathy and i had to seen myself through my winds up and through my kids and that seems everything plus we're on special teams so and i just those are the crazies run down the field and had somebody i was knocked out on monday night football and i hit a guys so hard i'm not myself. all next on larry king now. log

on to larry king our special guest is terry crews a professional athlete turned consummate actor you know him from his roles in everybody hates chris to be expendable zweig chips the newsroom and is the never not unclose old spice guy terry currently plays sergeant terry jeffords on the golden globe winning comedy brooklyn nine nine in which he generally whizzer shirt brooklyn nine nine airs tuesdays on fox and all of those he somehow managed to write a book it's titled aptly manhood we'll talk about all that later how do you go from the n.f.l. that you were in the end of zero seven years six different teams special teams right out of western michigan what took you to acting well you know i was an art major i said arts college before out of football scouts. so i was in the painting

drawing a whole thing but coming out of flint michigan no one was going to pay me to paint . michigan let miller city in america that i had to find a way out that i was the artists in the whole thing but it was one of those things where i thought it was the only way out especially in the city i mean that about a book a ball track that was my way out and. so i got into the arts but i walked on the west of miss universe the whole thing but i always knew i wanted to be in the movie business but behind the scenes i thought i would be a special effects are it is you know be an animation the whole thing and a friend of mine i want to move out there lay a print of mine invited me to an audition in the first thing i ever auditioned for i got which was it was a t.v. show called battle dome which was like american gladiators on steroids it was we put big or small they put me in a cage ok they set the ends on fire so you could get out then they put the

contestants and the pole point was to throw me out of the case i played as warrior named team money and all the thing and the show came on at eleven o'clock at night i was syndicated it was telling about although have you been working ever since ever since never stopped that's rare in that there's no yeah no now you showed brooklyn nine nine is ten a week everybody was shocked when the golden globes had won why would they shut it's a funny show they had only show ten episodes and believe me i was out anybody yeah we knew you knew it me out of the oh my god why did no work i mean first of all i'm always no at the best guy in that terrible movie i've always been a dude i met at movies but soon you know so i offered it my whole career i'd never ever ever thought i would ever get an award for anything because it's just you know i'm like oh i'm late in the lingo. yes night yes and they opened up the envelope

was what went through your mind you know first of all remember andy one first for rest actor and well as i was and i was chillin i started eating dessert i was like man we are going to be good we've got the pub we want it everything will be great so when we lose it's going to be all good and we got it and now. i can hardly breathe. and then i think i'm going to get to be on state now there's leonardo dicaprio there's barn oh oh there's mail he gave a bandit a go go now that's an i was nominated our show was nominated for everybody hates chris the first season golden globe but they wouldn't let us sit in the room because only chris rock and the creator were allowed at a table and i remember looking through the window at the beverly hilton and i thought wow doing when did we you know what so i happen to be you know what's it like to work with simberg he's right you know he's an improv kind of guy but you know what this is the thing i work with comedians and andy samberg is where the

heart is working guys in the biz see it's like athletics and this is one reason i love him so much you know when you really practice you make it look easy you know i mean you make mine in the past like you make it look like you're improv ing and the works nonstop on his delivery on his and i is on what he's doing and i said i can get behind a guy like i'm forty pop out of town to play around you know i want to show i want to do some something with some people who are going to work what you like but i will be on your own newsroom at the same time right right well actually good news well i did the first season a newsroom right now to talk about doing a third season and hopefully i can get some of those in but i love i mean i love doing it all why does brooklyn nine nine work i think it's because of the cast i think andre braugher you know andy samberg stephanie beecher's chelsea peretti told the truth will mean we could all be on our own shows doing our own thing. but we

all chose to unify we're like the avengers you know me as i'm the hope when you have a script for brooklyn nine nine did you think it would do well did you like it right away yeah you know what another thing the creators dangour make sure they created my favorite sitcom parks and recreation and i said we are and we're in good hands and these guys you know to cut their teeth on the office and conan is it true you said the jeff daniels made you better house so watching him stay on the areas lines you know that aaron is a playwright ok so we were not allowed to change any of the lines you're not allowed to do anything different and to watch all that dialogue and how he studied us i copied him i did out he had his little cars and all this i went got myself some cars and i watched the way he would go over the highs and i did it just like he did and you know i'm used to that i can be able to go ahead maybe interpellation you know but you can't do that on those who are you as comfortable with comedy as

drama definitely i think comedy is harder everybody knows drama ok when your dog is dead as a drama you know but nobody can agree on what's funny nobody is saying it's of you harry and he is funny yeah so that he can make a whole roomful of people laugh at a very very hard thing to do also playing in a room if you're not doing stand up you don't think it's funny you go there as a serious person in a comedy right well you know you play everything as if this is the most serious thing in the world and then they laugh but that's another reason why look at jamie foxx robin williams will smith those guys a complete it genius is but then they can do drama you or you had a scholarship first for art and then from athlete that's who first an artist still and we on who i was i would you want to be as a kid always you know again i've always had an inkling for the arts as well as things where i got rewarded for every picture that i got the girls like me you know paint pictures. the girls unable to how are they going to do well do you do you

still paint you know i do a lot of sketching right now i pick up all my energy into acting at the moment but i think i'm going to take a year off and just paint i mean in a future i say within the next ten years george bush is now painting sinatra loved to paint why do you like painting it's one of the most peaceful being the world there's nobody judging you it's all good you're by yourself and you can just be as creative as possible it's a mentally satisfy i don't know what i was to say i get in there it really time stops it's like you're you turn around and eight hours is gone by and it feels like you know half an hour we'll football star in high school no you know my school was basically academic and it was weird because that's why i had to walk on i was trying to get light you know in kind of way possible but my school wasn't a big football source in michigan oh yeah it was in the you know with that kind of thing and i literally three hundred letters to all that my colleges just trying to

get seen and i know it none of them took me i ended up walking on ocean first in a vault in the los angeles rams back in ninety ninety one when they were in alec rosebel they were they were over there and us you know and and yeah out on inflated the anaheim stadium you have said on our cereal issue you said the n.f.l. is jail with money yeah meaning well it's just that. you know there's a lot of personalities you know you have to play with pain i mean football and everyone something about richard sherman you know there's this thing we're going to know them but what people don't realize that every play you could lose your life you could lose your limb or you really lose your job this is if crabtree a caught that has ok he could've been five people in the stands so when you're talking about you're on a fight or flight mode all the time so you you get an interview right after

something like that happens does pop this is this fire this is energy but it same thing is the same guys and end up out are also the same guys who were there alpha they decide if we go rob's about it we're going to rob everybody that's what i mean it's like you're on special teams and i just those are crazy shit when i run down the field and hit somebody i was knocked out on monday night football you can google if you put terry crews not down when i come right up. to the gun i knocked i hit guys so hard i'm not myself. used to paint i think we have some up top portraits of other players right what happened when i got when i got cut i will go into the locker rooms of the city that i was in i was the basketball player i was over when i was in d.c. but you know it's meant you want howard i got cut a coach i will go back in and asked these guys if they wanted paintings and i saw survives you know

a painting my time as that's what i did you one hundred played about forty five years yes yes they did it was a. stan humphries that was the quarterback when i was over the chargers he was so nice enough to pay me to paint panem as that over his fireplace right now great playing thank you was it fun doing that well it was kind of sad because i was out of the n.f.l. i was trying to stay. so every time i painted mitt i wasn't playing so those times it was weird because i was. trying to do lithographs and i had a great idea was going to pay money to players but the but the problem is the players kept changing teams so you page there you are as a packer and all of a sudden he's a minnesota and your painting is worth nothing if you're in an upcoming football movie draft day what's that about it tom it's opening it's kevin costner's it opens april twenty fourth team it's about the draft the pro football draft yes and first of all it's the first movie that the n.f.l. has ever given license to. actual teams actual names and it's basically average in

the moneyball i mean it's what goes on behind the scenes in the plan i was addiction but it's true fiction but based on real things that go down and want to mess with either of involved when you play i play the dad former out of the former cleveland brown star but now i'm the dad of a potential person around pick played by area impostor the current you know used in texas and whose cousin it costner is the g.m. general manager of the cleveland browns he's the man who makes all the decisions is great is that a very good movie as it's one of the best movies on football i've ever seen and it didn't take place on the field at all with all the logistics all the things that go on and all the things you always wonder about it's answers a lot of that in this movie that's what i love about enough in the field it's i mean it touches on is a little bit but it's so let me say something is one of the most interesting things ever and suspenseful i was like shot you know it's almost like there will be blood

you didn't know oil would be that entertaining oh no you know what i mean it's just one of those things where you you learn something you didn't know before that's right the n.f.l. the i remember any given sunday without pitino the teams were all different names yeah and it kind of messed with the you know and another thing that i think all of us don't try to tackle way too much and we want to try to get behind the scenes and on the field and it extended to confuse each other whereas i was in the quote quintessential football movie the. which was the that's what we. call me. you know i've always been a ham. is one of those things you did in football it's. the same up next terry will talk about getting in touch with his feminine side the police don't go away.

i marinate join me. for kinda impartial and financial reporting commentary cancer news and much much. only on bombast and not. want to comment like. you know. a pleasure to have you with us here on t.v. today i'm sure.

the. technology innovation is developments from around rush hour we've. covered. we're back with terry crews the master of the pack top that's what i do it's packed popping that's and i said is there yes you can are very simple oh what i want you to do is put your hands together and pushing together push them i don't know i don't know it's already moving thing when you put your hands together they cause a pop my wife can do this you are the old spice guy too right for you lisa you are everywhere so i am here to lose a role because your physique you know i always looked at it like you know a world that was a that i didn't get it was never for me i tell me about the book manhood well it's

basically a memoir. i mean i have you know now you know it comes out may twenty and. i have moments in my life of astounding immaturity. i've been married twenty five years five kids and i don't know why or how i'm still here with some of the stupid things that i did like like i had ali member not once was i love to the end i found not want to get a job and being prideful and walking around and then when we as my family went broke and we all went broke and i was still sitting there in my pride as if i'm an x. and i felt football player nation hand me something i had a sense of entitlement that was taking us into the poorhouse and what took you to manhood well it was i have to say my wife out of ways we kind of came to terms where she was like listen if you don't grow up i got only.

and i was like it was that rock bottom it was that bottom that you hit that you like i got to change what you say did you didn't it didn't happen for you until you got in touch with your feminine side here and that you know. as most guys are you know the n.f.l. the whole thing is the manly man and you do you tough you don't show you don't boys don't cry we don't you know we hardcore but the problem is a mob a man always ends up along. and his wife gets out some kids gets out on a some way to win said one of the other business i'm and my thing was i was like whoa i have to do something and spears empathy and i was at the scene myself to my wives and to my kids and that changed everything julie honest i am a total company do did an event occur that you had to make a change which is the wife's right and i would that was one of the big ones that is plenty because there are several of it that happen is almost like when you fall off a cliff and you think you had it your bottom but you actually had

a ledge and you can call it i hear there's a very opening with isaiah i thought we had our we have a little man time my son is he was seven years old at the time i took him we were going to go to the movies and we saw iron man three the first five minutes he was shaking inch shivery and i was like you know what's up man and he just couldn't watch it was so explosive and all this stuff and i was like you know you want to you want to go outside you will leave so we left and we're going to lobby and i say hey man i used gary he said no no no i'm asking and i scared i was thinking no it's ok as a dad to get scared sometimes as i you know you scared us and. he said he said it defeated and i said this dude is seven years old and he's trying to watch a movie for me it wasn't you know and i say hey man you want to go swimming he was . a scone let's go swimming i said we don't want to see more and it broke me down because i realize that. most of the time and ten years earlier i would have

been i mean we don't want those movies you go man up you know i mean this is what it's about you got to be tough and i would have that wholly different. name you see and understood and i said this is the way i need to be forever do you think that there's more effort on masculinity in the black man yes i think culturally it comes from slavery you know i think there is i have to say african-americans there is a culture of verbal abuse where it's like you know they think nothing of just you know into sensitive that's the verbal the abuse the statement you know how are you cutting you tell me i'm too sensitive because i can only tell you how i'm feeling and as a dismissal of feelings of the dismissal of it because a lot of times you have to be hard you have a lot you wear this out a structure because when i used to walk around in flint michigan man you got to have a swagger or come to some out i'm going to attack you so i was going to come out

use of i was going to threaten you and so you had to come tough and you had to do with anything soft you know i mean and but the problem is is when you don't need that tough anymore you can't get rid of it as the only way you know that's all you all you know i don't know why i can't wait to read manhood i think that you get help through this process oh i do with two various counseling and you know various doctors who really just open my eyes there were moments where i was i mean kidding one time is funny because i asked the doctor should i she said i said you know as an actor you know i got to do my job she's like well you can tell him no i said no i can't tell him no i'm an actor that's what i do say you can use of the you know i can and i had the fact is i've never thought wow selling a director no you're telling someone no i mean this is from football you don't tell a coach no but she was like yes you can hardest word mean use language up it's the hardest part ever you're in cloudy with a chance to. balls to it came out on blu ray this week was it true you want to be

an animator we're going to do you want to organize and actually i have my portfolio in it disney twice and was waiting for them to call me in the acting career happen and you also have a rule when you're out with the family no autograph as actually because there was a time when early in my career where i was getting a life and i was loving it and we would go wow and people come up and i would take a picture with everybody and in two hours later my kids and wife are just sitting there and i did not spend a minute with them and i was like what's wrong guys you ok and i yeah where are i and i realize i need to be present with them no matter what so and boy you write this while we have to social media questions for you at new world tabloid tweens how do you feel about disney owning star wars and do you want a role in the new film. i think disney is great up to you know anything i'll make
