While interviewing Bernie Mac about his next film, the swimming drama Pride, the actor briefly talked about his role in Michael Bay's Transformers.
"I play a used car salesman, and all used car salesmen are full of sh*t – scuse my French – but they're con men," said Mac. "And they came to my set and I sold them the Transformer; I didn't know it was the Transformer, I thought it was a piece of junk. And the first thing you do as a salesman, a car salesman – I didn't know this, I did some investigating myself – they always sell you the 'bs' cars first. It's almost like a restaurant – get rid of the food, rotate it. When they come, I didn't know what the car exists of, and I just threw them a line; I'm a fast talker, quick whit guy. I got a chance to have some fun and Michael [Bay] – man, I've been fortunate, man, because every director allows Bernie Mac to do his thing. I have not been handcuffed since my career started from Ted Demme; every time a director, every time we'd do it straight, they always tell me, 'Now Bernie Mac it.' That's a luxury, you know."

He's just as wired in an interview as his is on stage. Last I saw him was in the "Original Kings of Comedy" on Comedy Central. I sat there thru his whole bit wondering "WTF is this guy talking about?" I've seen crack and speed addicts that werent as insane as he is. Quote: |

Bernie Mac can DO a used car salesman naturally. | |
