Amaury Nolasco Chats Armored & The Rum Diary

iphotos208588-Amaury-Nolasco.jpgWith his role as Fernando Sucre in the TV series “Prison Break” finally behind him, Amaury Nolasco continues to develop his film career!

His latest is an action movie “Armored,” which stars Matt Dillon and Laurence Fishburne. In the film, Nolasco plays Palmer, an armored truck security guard caught up in a $42-million heist with his coworkers.

During a phone interview with EXTRA, Nolasco talked about his role in the film and also his role in the upcoming movie, The Rum Diary:

On his character in Armored:
What drew me was how dark he is. He doesn’t say much, but his presence is there. He’s a guy that has had his encounters with the law and has spent his time in jail. He came out and found God and religion, but somehow finds himself with this proposition to steal $42 million and get away with it. It’s a dog-eat-dog movie where you see a lot of backstabbing and people picking sides.

On being sensitive:
That’s a very good question. What am I sensitive about? I love kids – especially kids with disabilities. I haven’t had a chance to explore a role where I can show my sensitive side. Right now I am getting these manly roles, and you take those until other opportunities come up. Hopefully soon I can show a different range. I actually just finished a movie [“The Rum Diary”] with Johnny Depp. It’s a completely different movie [from what] I’m used to.

On his character in The Rum Diary:
I play a guy named Segurra. He’s a suck-up who has money and is basically a shark. He’s one of those guys you don’t want next to you because he’ll suck your blood out.
