Terrence Howard is about to shake more than just his wig...he’s about to shake up Hollywood as we know it. And now we know exactly how he plans to do so.
Speaking in a new interview on Thursday (April 17), the “Best Man” star revealed he was recording a new podcast that’s dedicated to blowing the lid off industry misconceptions, missteps and “speaking truth to power.” Describing the venture as a “studio’s nightmare and every actor’s wet dream,” Howard told TMZ that while the release of the podcast is forthcoming, he’s going to be getting extremely candid about his experience working on Hollywood projects and shining a light on how things really operate.
Chief among those projects will no doubt be the popular Fox drama “Empire,” that took over TV screens from 2015 to 2020. In those conversations, the “Fight Night” star divulged that he’ll air out “business betrayals” and “shady transactions” that went down around that time.
Additionally, Howard will also let his listeners in on his areas of contention with major industry heavyweights like Disney, Fox, and will break down is continuous legal battle with popular talent service company, Creative Artists Agency (CAA). His beef with CAA stems from Howard’s allegations that the company tried to pressure him into accepting a lower salary for his role on the aforementioned show.
The “Hustle & Flow” star’s admission comes just after a shocking video of his appearance on the “Patrick Bet-David’s” podcast went viral at the top of this month. In it, Howard accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of trying to make a sexual advance towards him. He also talked about his masculinity and how that drives the decision he makes in his career, as he doesn’t take on any homosexual roles.
“When you approach a real man about his masculinity, you’re going to get a real reaction back,” he said, describing how he once had to threaten to punch producers who try to come onto him sexually.
He later added: “Always be the man in the room, that’s always been my whole thing. I’ve lost businesses because I don’t bend over in that way. I don’t compromise. I don’t play gay roles. I don’t kiss a man. I don’t do that sh*t because the man card means everything.”
