Actor Don Cheadle discusses his career, and his latest role, in “The Guard,” a comedic, fish-out-of-water tale of murder, blackmail, drug trafficking and rural police corruption, and the two cops who must join forces to take on an international drug-smuggling gang, an unorthodox Irish policeman and a straitlaced FBI agent. "The Guard" opens July 29 at AMC Empire 25, Angelika Film Center, and Lincoln Plaza Cinema.

Don Cheadle

Terrific interview - great questions, and Cheadle is giving generous, and highly informative answers. But more than a good Q&A - improvisational, interesting, honest conversation.
I just saw an old episode of FAME with Don Cheadle and an old Angela Winbush video with him dancing. It was awesome!!!!!
You are truly one of the greats!
I'm going to start typing L when my friends text or write something I think's funny.
Hi,
FYI
It's called 'laughing'
no need to add 'out loud'.
Thanks
