Cheech Marin
FameRank: 6

"Richard Anthony" ""Cheech"" "Marin" is an United States/American comedian, actor, voice actor and writer of Mexico/Mexican descent who gained recognition as part of the comedy act Cheech & Chong during the 1970s and early 1980s with Tommy Chong, and as Don Johnson's partner, Insp. Joe Dominguez on Nash Bridges. He has also voiced characters in several Disney productions, including Oliver and Company, The Lion King, It's Tough to be a Bug!, Cars (film)/Cars, Cars 2 and Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

Marin's trademark is his characters' strong Mexican accent; this is part of a comic persona, rather than a natural accent, as Marin is of Mexican descent yet was born and raised in the United States.

We did six records, then six movies. Now we need to do six of something else, so we get 666 - and then our master Satan can return!

Dance With Me.

I've known about it and loved it for years.

I always cared about him and he always cared about me. We actually tried to get together a couple other times, but the timing wasn't right then.

It was about taking the show and shining a different light on it. Each monologue was like a separate jewel that I helped thread into a necklace.

We just got sick of each other. We'd been together 17 years. We just kind of didn't want to listen to each other anymore. We both wanted to go our separate ways.

I was part of the draft resistance movement in LA where we did demonstrations at the draft centre and burned our cards and made a lot of trouble on campus.

It's good, but it's more of a backdrop to another little story I want to tell, and I'm going to direct that. Jeffrey Hatcher who did 'Stage Beauty' is doing the script. It's kind of like a backstage drama.

I've known Rick for a long time, and he wanted a pair of outside eyes to look at the show.
