Tony Rock Shares The Moment That Crushed Him
A resurfaced video of Tony Rock shows that he accused his brother Chris Rock of never casting him in any of his movies. Tony spoke with The Green Room podcast earlier this year and comedian Aries Spears asked him why he has never been cast in any of his brother’s films.
Tony replied, “I am going to try to explain to you guys. I am not saying it is going to make sense but my brotherโฆhe’s a businessman when it comes to movies.โ

Tony further explained a situation that destroyed him. It was the time when Chris cast him in the film ‘Top 5‘ but never told him when the film started shooting. He later asked people on the set why he was never informed about this.
“Two months in, I get a fucking phone call that says ‘Yo, you at the wrap party? We here.โ That sh*t crushed me. I have never seen the movie Top 5,” Tony continued.
