We’re talking with a New Jersey native who has built a dynamic career in front of and behind the camera. Joining us is actor, producer, and director Raw Leiba. You’ve seen him share the screen with Hollywood heavyweights like Sandra Bullock, Melissa McCarthy, Kurt Russell, Holly Hunter, Dwayne Johnson, and Idris Elba. He’s appeared in films like The Heat and Bone Tomahawk, as well as the acclaimed HBO series The Wire.

Now he’s stepping even further into storytelling with multiple new projects as both a filmmaker and a leading man, including Bloodspawn, currently climbing the charts on Tubi, the upcoming thriller The Hired Man, the documentary Chances Are, and the newly announced steampunk Western Chrome Bounty co-starring William Shatner.

And adding to that slate are projects like The Ethereal and Mala, showing just how wide-ranging his work has become.
