--------
In this clip, Hassan Johnson recalls watching Michael K. Williams play "Omar" on season one of 'The Wire' for the first time and the friendship that they developed over the years before he passed. From there, the New York native talks about playing Bobby Brown in the "Bobbi Kristina" movie and why he was so hesitant to take on the role after Woody McClain did such a good job playing the same character in the "New Edition Story." Moving along, Hassan talks about what it takes to maintain a working career as an actor for multiple decades. As the interview moves along, Dan Perlman jumps in and talks about his hit series "Flatbush Misdemeanors" and what it's been like to work with actors like Hassan, Kristin Dodson, Yamaneika Saunders, and more.
