I interviewed Terry Crews about how he broke into Hollywood, changed YouTube with his Old Spice videos, and using deepfakes and AI to make videos after he's gone. Thanks HubSpot for sponsoring: clickhubspot.com/eqb

Terry Crews recently collaborated with @ZachKing on a short film called Stranded 3, which brings together the best of social and traditional media. Both King and Crews have helped redefine their respective industries over the past decade. While many know Crews as the host of America’s Got Talent and his memorable roles singing Vanessa Carlton 1,000 Miles in White Chicks and starring alongside Andy Samberg in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, he’s also a furniture designer, talented flutist, and ex-NFL player. In this interview, we went deep into Terry's career and we'll be doing the same with my upcoming interview with Zach King next. Terry also spoke about the AI company Metaphysic who is behind Deepfake Tom Cruise and developing groundbreaking new technology for the upcoming Tom Hanks movie.
