There Are No Rhymes Or Reason, Actually. Having Said That, You Know, Cause There Are People Who Are Absolutely Single-minded About Their Process And They Can Still Come Up With Great Work. But (what) I Enjoy And It's The Same, I Suppose, As I Became More Of A Family Man, I Enjoy, I Enjoy An Atmosphere Where It, You Know, Doesn't Have To Be About Conflict To Get Good Results.

Where As You Go Into Playing Something Like Ulysses [on Black Panther], You Go - I'm Going To Have This Haircut And This Cloth, You Draw From Different Stimulus.

You Don't Go - Oh This Is A Motion Capture Role, I'm Going To Employ This Method Of Acting. We Don't Have Anything To Hide Behind When We're Doing This.

It's Really Up To The Acting Community To Be Willing To Be Educated About What Performance Capture Is In Order To Fully Appreciate It As Acting. It's Not A Type Of Acting, But Rather The Use Of Technology To Harness An Actor's Performance And Translate It Into An Ape, Another Animal, Or An Avatar Of Some Kind.
