Michael Jai White continued to talk about Tommy “Tiny” Lister Jr. by revealing that his wife knew him from when she was a little girl. He also referred to Tiny as one of the most positive people he’d ever met. The actor was shocked to find out that the “Deebo” character was based on Big U and recalled knowing multiple people who had the same personality as the “Friday” character. Michael Jai White also listed the various “hood stories” he’s heard about himself and how martial artists are viewed as supernatural.
