Wee-Bey from the Wire in a Capital One commercial...playing a cop

[GTA 809]

I always wonder why people always point out actors from the Wire in other things
that's what they 'posed to do...

Because every character was portrayed so well that we cant picture him/her in another role.

Have you guys ever watched the Kill Point? They also had a good amount of actors from The Wire.

The irony of Wee-Bay playing a cop is hilarious...

anyways, this is from a few years back. Poot had it pretty hard. Not sure what he's up to now, but homie was working a 9-5 in a mailroom.

Tray Chaney is hesitating—the 28-year-old native of Forestville, Maryland, suddenly seems unwilling to answer a question.

TV audiences may remember Chaney as Poot, the Baltimore street hustler whose grit and guile enabled him to emerge still breathing from five bloody seasons on HBO’s The Wire. Since the show ended its celebrated run in 2008, fans have wondered about the whereabouts of their favorite actors.

I’ve asked if there’s any truth to the rumor that he’s working a maintenance job.

“Maintenance?” he finally says. “Nah. But maybe mailroom.”

Working a 9-to-5 is among the last things fans might expect to find Chaney doing. After being part of The Wire’s ensemble cast, the energetic, charismatic actor felt ready for the next step.

Chris Paltrow has a nice little stint on a show called Graceland.

Its actually a pretty entertaining show on USA. The first season is done, 2nd season is ordered.
I recommend it if you're bored and need a new show.

Not sure if Chris' little story arch is going to continue though.
But It was funny seeing him play such a different character

His album, New York: Love Story, is fire though. It's even grammy nominated. Hoody with no sleeves I can't defend
