-------------
In this clip, Danny Trejo further speaks on his decorated acting career, one of which was 'Con Air' that he recalls filming with every wannabe tough guy in Hollywood. Additionally, he mentions that often times when he boards an airplane the pilot will reference the film, while noting that he's also remembered for roles that he played in films like "The Replacement Killers," "Reindeer Games," "Anchorman" and even "Spy Kids." Later on, Trejo speaks to what it was like to land his first starring role in "Machete," an opportunity that finally came after 25 years in the industry.

[@vinny214]

He started his career at 41 yrs old, he was living a movie before he started acting in them.

[@jayluis189]

@Nice Shot They've both looked 50 for the past 30 years

[@emilio2647]

@Julien Lefebvre the truth is Samuel Jackson isn't quite suited for action films unlike Trejo who is born to play villains or heroes.

[@tootzy-the-roll]

@Julien Lefebvre that's not an action role

[@ayeoner]

Can't be happier for him. He's been grinding forever!

[@ArCh-or7ey]

Anthony Finley after hearing this interview being at the bottom and hitting it big, I’m really happy for him.

[@aceofpittsburgh]

I love how quickly he goes from a laugh to that strange look where he tilts his head down and looks straight at vlad.

[@Doomreb]

yea i think it's mainly because vlad isn't physically there and he needs to focus to hear him clearly.

[@Momo7O7]

First time I've ever seen anybody else noticed that and comment about it.

Zombie Rusty Shackleford yes could have made him a continental owner in Mexico

[@XxAntihero0xX]

Still a possibility. We need that John Wick Chapter 4

[@erroltorrington9186]

Classic for sure!!

[@johnlloyddy7016]

His pronunciation threw me off. It took me awhile to connect the dots when he mentioned John Cusack's Sensei, then I remembered Benny Urquidez starred with Cusack in Grosse Point Blank and was his trainer and fight director.

Could do a movie on this mans life,him starting of in crime the going to prison being the WW and LW champ in every institution he went In to,then getting on the straight an narrow,sounds like a brilliant movie to me 💯
