Jackson (Pulp Fiction, The Avengers), Bill Duke (Predator, Commando), Khandi Alexander (CSI: Miami), Glenn Plummer (Speed, Strange Days, Saw II), Charles S. Dutton (Alien³), & more.

Fun Fact: Ice Cube was offered the role of O Dog but he turned it down because he felt the character was too similar to the role in Boyz N The Hood which is why he wrote Friday which is somewhat of an antithesis to films like those because it focused more on comical and hysterical situations that happens in environments like this rather than just pure constant violence. Also did yall recognize Too Short in the movie?

The gunshot in the end after Cain’s heart slows down in a way symbolizes his final heartbeat … Live by the gun, die by the gun

Larenz Tate was one of those actors that was ever-present in the ‘90s. He was in everything.

Caine didn't survive. If you listen in his last narration you can hear a heartbeat in the background. As he delivers his monologue, the heartbeat gets slower and slower, until his heart beat stops with his final thoughts.
