Personal Quote:
I was in Puerto Rico, celebrating my 39th birthday, when I got a call from my manager. She said: 'I need you to sit down.' I said: 'What's going on?' She said: 'Are you ready for this, Detective Alvarez?' I said: 'What are you talking about?' She said: 'YOU'RE DETECTIVE F*CKING ALVAREZ.'Trivia:
In his Directorial-Debut, many of the characters in "Conscientious Objector" were named after his friends and family. The character of 'Judge Childers' was named as a homage to his fallen friend/comrade, LT Therrel S. Childers, USMC KIA 21 Mar 03. See more »Trademark:
