Quotes

▶

"With my background, I came out of the theater."; "Unfortunately, most actors want to play off their own personal mystique and good looks and whatever, but that will only carry you but so far."; "There are lots of stories about my culture that I think bring a whole other perspective to who we are and where we have been and how we got here that I think need to be done."; "One, I had never worked with John Woo before and I wanted to see what that was like, and two, Ben Affleck is a friend, so it would be fun to work with him again."; "James Cameron has always been way ahead of the curve in terms of the use of technology in his movies.";  …

"If you have the skill, then you can move as you age."; "I would love to play the villain, but again, it sort of what happens in this industry."; "I think the thing is with a movie that has this much science fiction in it; you need characters who are more science fact, if you know what I mean, than they are human."; "I think people believe that I give ant aura of someone who has both feet on the ground."; "I think it talks about the fact that there are black people in the world who have tremendous amount of talents and have no channel through which they can those talents."; "I think it talks about that there needs to be some proactive attack against drugs infiltrating our culture."; "I love doing movies but I loved doing theatre just as much."; "Film and television is just a different technique in terms of how to approach the camera but basically the job is the same; but what you learn as a craft in theater, you can then learn to translate that into any mediums."
