Imagine being a successful working actor, booking movie after movie, show after show, and being the envy of your peers. 

Chris Browning, American film and television actor, was living the dream before succumbing to an addiction so powerful that he ended up losing his home and began a life of homelessness, winding up in an encampment under LA’s infamous 405 freeway.

But what would you do if while getting sober, there was a casting call for a small part in a big film, and they were looking for bad guys, bad guys that needed to die? Would you decide to pass and wait for the kind of roles you’d been playing before? Or would you take the part and become that guy that died in the movie you like?
