About this listen

In this episode of The Latest with Loren LaRosa, Loren sits down with actor, director, and writer Marcus Callender for a deeply insightful conversation about his journey in the entertainment industry. Marcus opens up about his breakout role in Power, the life-changing visibility that came with the Wu-Tang: An American Saga series, and the emotional highs and lows of navigating recognition, creative pressure, and unexpected setbacks.

He shares the challenges of working through the writers’ strike, the impact of industry instability, and how these experiences ultimately inspired him to self-produce his passion project, the stage play Spades. Marcus reflects on the moment he took a leap of faith—moving to Los Angeles—and how that decision unlocked new opportunities, purpose, self-belief and more.
