O’Shea Jackson, Jr. joins Mase & Sue to talk about his upcoming film DEN OF THIEVES 2: PANTERA. They discuss his anxiety surrounding the premiere, watching himself on-screen, second-guessing his acting choices, surprise executive producer credit, the evolution of his character, Donnie, how he mirrors his real life, chemistry with Gerard Butler, the trappings of being famous and a random exchange with Tony Hawk. Plus, his pro wrestling passion, why he cut his music career short, being the son of a famous father, and how being cast in INGRID GOES WEST affected his acting career. Also, a moral quandary, monkeys and Shakespeare, the barrage of movie theater promos and trailers and a review of the body horror film, THE SUBSTANCE.
