Earlier today, we pointed you to an interview with M. Night Shyamalan posted over at Cinematical, and I just stumbled across an interview over at LatinoReview with John Leguizamo, who stars alongside Mark Wahlberg in the mystery thriller “The Happening,” which opens this Friday.

In the interview, Leguizamo talks mainly about how he got involved in the project and what role he’s taking on. He also chats about his upcoming flick “The Ministers,” which is directed by Franc. Reyes.

Here’s a quick excerpt from what Leguizamo had to say to LatinoReview about being cast:

“Night said that after he wrote the character he thought of me, but then he asked me to audition too [laughs], I guess, just to be sure, just in case. I auditioned for him through a video-phone and I emailed it to him and he called me that Night and said, 'John, that was great. I really liked what you did.”
