For Terry Crews, There Are No Rules: ‘I’m Just Getting Started’

For Terry Crews, there are no rules. “There used to be so many rules. They used to say, ‘you can’t do TV, you must only do movies, you can’t do commercials.’” But Crews has proven you can do all of those things and more. He just joined pal Dave Bautista in The Killer’s Game (September 13). Crews loves that it’s funny, saying “to make people laugh is probably the hardest job in entertainment, because no one can agree on what’s funny.” He also loves that “it wasn’t three hours. I’ve had it with the three-hour movies.” Whether it’s acting or hosting America’s Got Talent, Crews says he polished his comedy skills in an unexpected place while in the NFL. “I honed my skills trying to make other athletes laugh in the locker room.” He’ll be putting that skill to use in the upcoming animated reboot of Everybody Hates Chris. “I have been floored by the acceptance of things I’ve done in the past that have all of a sudden become bigger.” Crews is aware how rare he has it. “I’m an old football player, so everything I’m doing is already past what anyone ever expected.”
