Ice Cube has raked in millions at the box office, but when looking back on his movie career there is one project he regrets passing up. “I would say Menace II Society.
I had a shot to do O-Dog, even though I think Larenz Tate killed it,” Cube revealed on the “On The Guest List” podcast. “I just didn’t wanna be typecast. You know what I mean? I was like, ‘I just did Boyz N The Hood and they just gonna have me be the L.A. gangbanger, you know what I mean every damn movie,’” Cube elaborated.
Cube said it was the second movie he’d been offered. And similar to Doughboy, O-Dog was a gang member with a short fuse and willingness to pull the trigger.
