Don’t try to say what’s a hit and what’s not. Absolute genius.” I was just, like, “Holy cow!” It’s weird, because… I mean, this is why you just have to do your best.

TERRY CREWS TERMINATOR SALVATION MOVIE
There were brilliant actors and actresses like Tilda Swinton and Will Ferrell who were coming over and literally saying, “This is the funniest movie of all time.” Will Ferrell actually came up to me and was, like, “Camacho. And people were, like, “Hey, man, what happened to that movie?” And I’m, like, “Aw, don’t worry about.” I tried to just brush it off.īut then all of a sudden, what happened was that people started to pick it up on video, it started to play on Comedy Central a lot, and all of a sudden Hollywood got a hold of it. and it disappeared! It was gone! And then when it finally came out two years later, it was dumped into two or three theaters over just one weekend, and then it was done. I was telling everybody, “I’ve got this movie, I’m playing the President of the United States, it’s incredible,” the whole thing. It’s funny, because I’d just finished White Chicks, and I thought Idiocracy was going to be my gigantic follow-up. Vanity Fair: How did you find your way into Sandy Wexler? Did Adam Sandler just come to you and say, “So I’ve got this role that’s got Terry Crews written all over it”?

Vanity Fair spoke to the athlete-turned-actor about his appearance in Adam Sandler’s new Netflix film, Sandy Wexler, why President Camacho failed to make his planned comeback during the 2016 election, and why Saturday Night Live’s anti-Trump humor sometimes leaves him scratching his head. But while his physique understandably made him an easy fit for action films like The 6th Day, The Expendables, and Terminator Salvation, Crews quickly proved adept at comedy as well, scoring roles both on the big screen-most notably in Mike Judge’s cult classic turned uncanny prophecy Idiocracy, where he played President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho-and on UPN’s Everybody Hates Chris.Ĭurrently, Crews is in the midst of his fourth season of Fox’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but he’s keeping busy during his hiatuses as well. And who could have, really? The list of former football players who’ve successfully turned thespian is a decidedly small one. When Terry Crews wrapped up his NFL career in 1997, it’s likely that he never imagined how far he’d go as an actor over the next two decades.
