Clay Cureton Talks Playing the Lead Role in Feature Film 'LA Undercover'
Clay Cureton Talks His Upcoming Lead Role in 'LA Undercover'
By: Omar Cook
Clay Cureton is gearing up to be one of Hollywood’s biggest villains in his latest role as “Keys” in the upcoming movie LA Undercover, directed by Omar Cook and Adonis Armstrong. Cureton once again joins forces with 247LC Films but this time in a lead role as he previously played a supporting role in the popular crime drama short film, Coke Boys where he won an award for Best Supporting Actor at the Five Continents International Film Festival.
“My biggest thing when I played ‘Keys” was, anybody can play a dude who’s ruthless and merciless, but I literally went into this thinking I want the audience to find this dude likeable. Like, I know he’s dirty and grimey, and killing people, but I don’t want anything to happen to this dude. I wanted to connect with them on an emotional level.”
Clay Cureton stars in LA Undercover
Cureton delivered an amazing performance in the LA Undercover crime thriller where he starred alongside Omar Cook, Queen Ajima, and Adonis Armstrong. He has seen some recent success in entertainment as he also stars in the movie Expunged: Test Case and the upcoming film Jelani.
Other than entertainment, Clay originally had dreams of being a professional football player where he was a lettermen at Long Beach Poly before attending San Diego State University. Clay’s journey into entertainment has taken him into multiple avenues including theater and modeling.
Clay’s latest role as ‘Keys’ is a money hungry ruthless crime-lord in Los Angeles; a complete opposite to the detective role he played in Coke Boys. LA Undercover is set to drop on Amazon Prime Video on September 22. Listen to the exclusive interview on this week’s episode hosted by Gentel Sharrie and Omar Cook.
