Clues in the video:
It happened when he was a young actor; “before I was really famous” — by a very famous director who is now deceased.
So, who were the directors in his early movies...
If the guy is dead, why not name him?
Checking IMDB I haven’t found yet that any of the directors of his early movies are deceased. He may be referring to a TV series director, possibly from Saturday Night Live?
His earliest role was 1989, in an episode of the tv show, “227.” He was 26 at the time. That’s a bit long in the tooth for most of these sickos.
