I think that one of my favorite movie roles has been a film that I did with Jason Statham that was out last year called ‘Safe.’ I played the main bad guy in that. Reggie Lee Read Quote
I’ve played a lot of cops and a lot of bad guys, so I would like to play a regular person and just live a regular life with something interesting about it. I love the idea of television and kind of infiltrating that. Reggie Lee Read Quote
When I was about 10, I saw Timothy Bottoms in a tele-movie called ‘A Shining Season,’ and it really moved me. I was maybe 8 or 9. Timothy played a runner who had cancer, and he defied the odds by coaching a girls’ team to victory. Reggie Lee Read Quote

I consider myself a fortunate working actor, but I really work at it all the time. If I have a couple of weeks off, I’m taking class. You never stop. I started when I was 10 years old in Cleveland, and I’ve never stopped working my butt off. Reggie Lee Read Quote

I was made fun of in the Midwest – I was the only Asian in my graduating class of 200. Fortunately, I found my niche, and it was fine. But I wanted to be so white, you wouldn’t believe it. I was like, ‘I want to be white; I don’t want to be this anymore.’ But now I embrace it. Reggie Lee Read Quote
