Tony Curran: "Aryan Brother"

"I'm just a straight-up Aryan Brother. It's pretty self-explanatory. Except instead of focusing on the racial war part of the character, I chose to focus on the 'brother' side - like, a good warm guy who'd teach you to play catch or how to scale a fish, unless you're black."

Stephan Jones: "Dark-Haired Aryan Brother"

"I'm not an Aryan Brother who shaves his head. I'm proud of my hair. Maybe a little vain. But not flaky, like a blonde. I'm dark-haired. I've got a good head on my shoulders -- one that's full of great hair and racial hate."

Don Frye: "Long-Haired Aryan Brother #2"

"I'm like 'Dark-Haired Aryan Brother,' but more extreme. My character feels his power comes from his hair: his long, luxuriant, genetically superior hair. I'm not sure who Long-Haired Aryan Brother #1 was supposed to be. Maybe he got lost in editing. Maybe I killed him."

Frankie J. Allison: "Deep-Chested Aryan Brother"

"To tell you the truth -- and I hate to admit this -- I don't even know what 'deep-chested' is supposed to mean. I have a deep voice? I'm barrel-chested? I wanted to ask Michael Mann about it, but he was yelling at some Dominicans for murmuring too loud during a drug deal scene and then he fired the grip. So, no, we never had that discussion. I just went with the deep voice."

Pavel Lychnikoff: "Russian FBI Agent #1"

"Okay, I admit it. I thought they were having me in to read for the part of Crockett. I know it's a long shot. So shoot me. But I get in, and they're like, 'No, Pavel, we want you to read for one of the FBI Agents,' and I'm like, 'Okay, great. Let me see if I can guess which one."

Everlayn Borges: "Miss Cuba"

"I don't think she even likes Cuba. I mean, I know she represents it and all that, but I think she wants to escape. Maybe she has family in Miami. Maybe she wants to turn her sash into a parasail -- that's her master plan. I didn't really get to talk to the writers about it, but me and Miss Jamaica discussed it a lot."

Juanita Billue: "Miss Jamaica"

"I had a lot of trouble on this film, mostly because of Miss Cuba. She kept trying to steal my sash. And when I'd tell her to stop, she'd say, 'Come with me! We don't have to live like this!' And I'd be like, 'What?' and then Jamie Foxx grabbed my ass, but he's cute."

Patrick Michael Buckley: "Air Traffic Controller"

"Marc Macaulay and I had a whole relationship worked out, where my character's a real hard worker, a real company man, very loyal, but also scheming to get the promotion to supervisor. So that adds a lot of emotional tension and texture to our roles."

Marc Macaulay: "Air Traffic Supervisor"

"Really, I was just trying to look at the radar screens and pretend I saw planes."

Oleg Taktarov: "Russian Security"

"I was up for the part of 'Russian FBI Agent #1,' but Pavel got it. Again! I have a lot of respect for Pavel, but come on -- let another Russian brother get a break."

Juliana Guedes: "Isabella's Secretary"

"Basically, I'm there to make sure Isabella's needs are met. I keep her appointments, handle her calls, but it's more than that: I'm like a sister to her. I'm like a sister so close that I don't even have a name -- just her name, plus my job description."

Ilan Krigsfeld: "Isabella's Security #2"

"I'm essentially mopping up all the stuff that Isabella's secretary misses. Which is a lot. You'd think my character is a secondary character, like sidekick-to-the-sidekick. But actually, I conceived of him as the backup-to-the-backup, so in that way, I'm the last line of defense. And, yeah, it's a him. You got a problem with that?"

Gilbert Quintana: "Marine Shed Guard"

"What's in the Marine Shed? Something pretty fucking important, that's what."

Abdel Tornes: "The Courier"

"I think I deserve my own sequel."

Mario Ernesto Sanchez: "El Tiburon"

"I'm not really an extra, per se -- my character has a name. And I've played lotsof Hispanic bad-asses before, so I know the terrain. I played 'Jorge Mendoza' in Landfall, and 'Arturo Fernandez' in Proof of Life, and 'Drug Buyer' in Bad Boys. So I really felt like I knew who this El Tiburon was, where he was coming from emotionally, what his journey was. What I didn't understand is why he named himself after a Hyundai sports car."

Julia Yarbrough: "Herself"

"Yeah, you know -- just Julia Yarbrough being Julia Yarbrough. 'Cause that's what Julia Yarbrough's all about."
