Why John Leguizamo Says He Didn’t ‘Want To Be A Drug Dealer Or A Murderer’ The Rest Of His Life

John Leguizamo made his television debut in the mid-1980s on “Miami Vice.” He was first cast as the son of an important drug lord and later as one-third of drug dealing trio the Alvarez brothers. Roles like this, the actors now says, are ones he’s made a point to stay away from over the years.

Almost 30 years after his big break, the Colombian-born actor is known for his work in “Romeo + Juliet,” “Ice Age,” Jon Favreau’s “Chef,” his own “Fugly!”and most recently “The Experimenter.” The latter is the reason Leguizamo and co-stars Peter Sarsgaard, Winona Ryder and Kellan Lutz sat down with The Hollywood Reporter over the weekend at Sundance.
