Terry Crews Breaks Down His Career, from 'White Chicks' to 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' | Vanity Fair 

Terry Crews is when you max out Charisma and Strength on a character.

I’m convinced Terry doesn’t act in B99, it’s just him being himself

Terry had a career pregnancy. It took him 9 months to get his first gig.

it’s so weird not hearing himself talk in the third person

Terry Crews starts speaking: everybody likes that.

This is the first episode of breakdown that’s basically just “Life lessons with Terry Crews.” This guy could make a moral out of waiting in line at the DMV. What a wholesome dude.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is literally my favorite show on TV in a long time.

His agent must be facepalming himself every time Terry says he'll do the job for free lol

I met Terry in Universal Studios a few years back, I was there with my family and he was with his. My son wanted an autograph so I came up to Terry and asked. He said he was there with his family and was sorry and hoped I understood. I said of course, he shook my hand and couldn't have been more gracious. Watching this now made even more sense. Terry you're awesome and as an up-and-coming actor thanks for teaching me another lesson!

disappointed that he didnt talk about those Old Spice commercials. still love him tho.

that guy looks like Sargeant terry jeffords

His wife sounds like a very wise woman.

I flipping love this guy. Everyone thinks that muscular people are like hella tough and strong and mean, but this guy is an absolute fan girl for other actors. Humble, a family man, etc. This guy should be every mans role model to become successful.

So this is how the sunshine looks in human form. I can dig it.

No mention of Terry's Old Spice commercials? Those were GOLD.

19:11 Terry Crews with no beard makes me realize how people never got that Clark Kent is Superman with glasses

About bringing the A game on The Expandable. Terry explained, in another video/interview similar to this one, that initially when on the movie set he was very disappointed for not being used enough (his character screen time, salary I guess) and when he asked "they" (production guys I guess) pushed back. Terry got into a bad attitude. But he remembered a saying: There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. So he decided to then act as if he was paid $20 Million, being super enthusiastic and positive with everyone on set, and giving his all for just what he asked to do (a line here, a line there) on that film. Sly started to notice, and then re-wrote the script, adding the tunnel scene where Terry's character saves Stallone's character. Basically, Terry learned to be solution and not be the problem.

Imagine being Terry Crews. That’s it. Just imagine

I just love how he keeps bringing his wife in his story

terry is the only one who can keep me entertained for 20 minutes about movies / shows i didnt watch EXERPT LONGEST YARD THE AMAZING B99 AND WHITE CHICKS

Terry Crews seems like such a genuine down to earth dude. I’d love to just hang out with him and hear more stories about his Hollywood experience.

Terry crews is a national treasure. He must be protected at all costs.

"Most iconic scene in movie history" Thats the 'A thousand miles' scene right?

He's married since 1990. That's so amazing!

He's a real nice guy! Everybody hates Chris is where I first saw Terry.

"...and then I realize.. She was right" the wise words of every man who wanted his marraige to succeed

I never stopped smiling while watching this video. Terry Crews just gives off this vibe. I love it

I would like to say " Everybody loves Terry " ❤

I love this man. He is so humble. The way he lives his life and has been willing to do ANYTHING to provide and persevere in life is so inspirational. What a wonderful example to the rest of us. He deserves everything he has.

I have the upmost respect for this man, great personality, talented, and also great values/amazing person and love him on b99! he is literally the most positive embodiment of masculinity

"I had to learn to exercise a 'no' " "in reality, I didn't owe them anything...I owed my family my time.." I NEEDED THAT, Terry! Thanks so much! & thanks Vanity Fair!

Bruh, he literally looks the same each year. Like this man DOESN'T age. Tell me your secrets Crews. Tellllll meeee...

Wow I really didn’t think I’d care about watching this whole thing but he’s so nice to listen to. I learned so many life lessons lol

Terry is such a humble guy.

love how he learned his bounderies with fans, family over fans, you are wit your family not your fans. 4 minute ish

This guy's a sorcerer. 50 yrs of age and not a single sign of ageing.

Every time he says "hey man", I always think of jeffords yelling hey man to pimento on his bachelor party

I love Terry. He's the celebrity I'd most like to meet. Always seems so humble and awesome.

This is the only actor that can get gassed up cos his character was killed off 5 mins after his introduction Also, Brooklyn 99 is filmed on the west coast. My life is a lie

"i wanted to learn how to interact with people" me too terry, me too

Why isn't anybody talking about Blended!! For me he was the major highlight...So hilarious 😁

It was like two years ago but I saw Terry at a McDonald’s drive-tru

Terry Crews has 3 essential attributes that are inspirational: positivity, physique and a good attitude. He’s one of my heroes!

I love how this guy has a soft and funny side and he can tear your head off at the same time...

Terry kills it every time. He’s awesome in Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Battle Dome was a crap show but it gave us Terry Crews so I guess it all evened out

It's a wonder to see a man who has such a remarkable character. Built like a superhero, warm, family oriented, principled, transparent, kind, optimistic, generous and super-ultra-thankful. Terry doesn't focus his story on the disappointments and rejections even though there were many. His warmness is a signal even to the haters that everything will be ok. We just have to let go of our attachments, be brave, convince ourselves of an 'Alternative' outcome and be open as we move forwards. I think his version of manhood and humanity is incredibly powerful and one that we can reach. In life, the philosophy we believe in is incredibly important but living that philosophy and touching the lives of EVERYONE you meet is on another level.

Can't believe I actually watched the whole video and didn't even get bored.

"The dips is just as important as the highs" This video really inspire me, thank you. Thank you Terry:).

VF could have just named this Terry Crews and would've had still as many views I see Terry I watch

so happy to see that good things happen to good people

Watching guys like Terry, really makes you realize that they are people just like us, loving parks and rec.

Terry Crews is amazingly grounded. This interview was lovely.

Terry is so freaking popular in Brazil for doing White Chicks and Everybody Hates Chris because there's a TV channel that reprises it everyday, and WE LOVE IT SO MUCH. Sometimes I even call him Julius because of that, so nostalgic!

I just barely got into Brooklyn 99 and I absolutely love it. It literally has everything I love in a tv show. Positive LGBT+ portrayal, murder/crime, mystery, humor, enjoyable characters, etc. Gina and Rosa are my favorite btw and I think I'm like halfway done with S2.

I love it when he laughs, its so heartwarming

BROOKLYN NINE NINE fam ,14:23 is what you came here for Noine NOINE ❤️

I read once, if you want to get paid, you gotta be willing to do it for free. If the average guy had half this man's energy and love for life...man....unstoppable.

What I really learned in this interview is that Terry Crews has an awesome wife.

I've watched all but four of these and they're good - Brooklyn 99 especially.

I just LOVE this man! Everybody hates Chris was my thing!

I really love this guy!!! His positive thinking and energy is contagious!!!

he didnt mention "Norbit" :( Thats was my favorite movie as a teen.

I gotta say, this dude is one of the all time greats, man. Humble, grateful, wise, brave...let alone talented. I don't think that's an easy combo of traits to maintain. I'm team Crews for life.

I had no idea Terry hosted Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, and he hosted it for so many episodes as well!

Untitled Cop Pilot Comedy is my favourite show of all time 😂😂

"everybody hates chris" and "white chicks" was reason why i love terry crews

i watched this whole 21 minutes video, but never felt bored for a second....thats some great skill to keep your audience always attentive . WOW

I love Terry he's so funny! I like that he mentions his family and how his wife occasionally has to let him know about himself Lol. ❤😎👍

This guy is one of my favorite comedy actors.

Terry is one of the coolest most sweetest guys ever. Seriously he’s such a happy and genuine dude and he deserves every bit of success he’s gotten!! We love you Terry!!

This man is INCREDIBLY humble. I love him so much. And he really does have range. Everybody loves The Rock, but this dude is my favorite buff bald man.

An amazing man, so humble and greatful of everything in his life.

This is definitely the only interview that I really watch all the way through. Such a great man. Love everything he does. Just wonder, how could he find time to keep so in shape.

Theres just something so lovely about terry crews and the energy around him, you cant help but smile listening to him talk

18:40 .... did he just say brooklyn 99 isn't shot in new york?

Ready for B 99 season 7 😍

How has Terry not aged since 2001?! It's amazing

You can tell which projects he has more passion for by how he talks about them.

I love his energy and enthusiasm. And still so down to earth. He's on my bucket list of celebrities I'd love to have a beer with and just chat about life.

He’s just the happiest hunkiest man on the earth 🌏

That Deadpool 2 moment, I laughed. so hard. in the theater. That was the best.

He’s so positive and vibrant!!! Go terry!!!

He's so passionate and on FIRE yet he cannot take himself seriously. What a fun guy!

Such a likeable person

Can’t help but love the guy. We all need his positivity

Terry is such a gem. Def one of my fave actors of all time

I love that he is just a fan of everything, and so exited to do everything he has done.

20:00 is truly motivational during the isolation thanks for the words truly

"A thousand miles" guy

This is the 2nd or 3rd time I've seen Terry do a breakdown like this, but it's always a pleasure to listen to him talk.

this man. talk about an inspiration. it seems like he takes nothing for granted, is hungry, humble, and...what a dude.

Really appreciate this vid. Puts the acting career in perspective, and how it can be pretty thankless in the beginning.

He’s so unproblematic omg king

Love this actor!!! He is so well prepared on what to tell and he is not afraid to be honest. He is humble!!!!

I just love how humble he is

Good job Terry. I don't even know why but I'm smiling all the way.

Terry Crews is one of the best actors of our age.

I love him, he’s just so wholesome

terry crews is one of my true heroes, he is everything that i aspire to be when i grow up. even if i don't become famous. but the fact this he is famous, and just as humble and appreciative is truly inspiring
