In the latest clip, Leon spoke on his appearance in the 1988 film, "Colors," which he described as "the definitive gang movie." The actor described what it was like sharing the screen with Hollywood stars, such as Sean Penn, Robert Duvall, Don Cheadle, Damon Wayans, and Mario Lopez. Being considered the first film to put Bloods and Crips on the big screen, Leon revealed that the extras in "Colors" were real gang members.
