Empire actor Terrence Howard's recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience sparked attention, as he discussed some unconventional ideas about the universe during the over three-hour interview with the comedian-turned-commentator.

The Hustle & Flow actor also shared memories he claims to have from his time in his mother's womb.

“I was about six months, maybe, inside the womb," Howard started, before delving into a range of unusual theories.

“And I'm like, "Okay, don't forget I'm here, don't forget, don't forget, don't forget." You go to sleep. You wake up again.”

“You remember coming out?” Rogan asked, clearly amazed.

“I remember being compressed and [I] wanted to panic,” Howard responded.

“And [I] remember being born,” he continued, also stating that he remembers being circumcised.

In addition to these personal experiences, Howard discussed his involvement in various ventures, including a patent purchase that has since been utilized by numerous augmented and virtual reality companies.

“I paid $260,000 for the worldwide patent, but then my agents kept - not my lawyers - kept sending me these maintenance fees and annuities, and I'm like, ‘These folks are just trying to shake me down. I'm not going to pay this."'

A year later, he noticed that companies such as Sony, Microsoft, and Amazon were beginning to reference parts of the patent, which still generates income today.

“This patent has earned over seven trillion,” Howard asserted, implying that he was pushed out of owning the patent from 2010.

Howard also recounted a perceived betrayal by Downey Jr. during their time working on Iron Man, claiming he ‘sacrificed’ himself for Downey Jr. and helped him secure the role before being replaced by Don Cheadle in the sequel.

“I called him 27 times and I left a message,” he remembered, recounting how he found out he was being replaced as War Machine.

“I’m calling his assistant. I’m like, ‘I need the help I gave you.’ I didn’t hear from him until 3 years later, when I bumped into him at Brian Grazer’s wedding,” the actor remembered, referring to the producer who married Veronica Smiley in 2016.

He also noted that Downey Jr. showed no remorse for his actions. When they met again, the actor congratulated him on his success with the recently launched show Empire, which had premiered the year before.

“But at that time I’d had Empire or whatever and I came back he was like, ‘Oh but everything worked out for you.’ That broke me a little bit,” he said.

Furthermore, Howard made bold statements about metaphysics, suggesting that ‘gravity' is a construct of electricity and that humanity is on the brink of 'killing gravity' and, in essence, 'their God.'

The Joe Rogan Experience is available for streaming on Youtube, Spotify, and Apple Music, with episodes released daily.
