“They’re here for the people and the community and it’s also very entertaining. It’s the making of an action movie. I saw all the action sequences – blowing up the house, the helicopter and all this crazy stuff – and I said, ‘This is perfect.’ We laughed the whole time.
That is how I kind of pick those things. I get asked to do a lot of endorsements and commercials, but I’m not in need of money. I’ve made plenty of money.”
The teaser trailer of Agent State Farm was dropped recently and showcased the actor as a heroic State Farm insurance agent.
