I Hear God As An Audible Voice.

I Gravitate Towards Anything That Feels Challenging To Me, That Feels Like It's Gonna Be Saying Something A Bit Different And New To The Audience, And Anything That Moves Me. I Do Movies That I Would Want To See, So I Don't Necessarily Gravitate Towards Any Genre In Particular. I Just Try And Do The Best Work I Can And Also Try To Keep The Audience Guessing.

I Basically Enjoy Doing Films That Are About Something, That Have Complex Roles That I Can Sink My Teeth Into. Basically, I Gravitate To Things That Scare Me. They Might Be Things That I Don't Think I Know How To Play. I Like Trying To Find Within Me Where This Character May Exist. Whether Is It Is A Fictional Character Or Not I Am Not Motivated By That. It Is More About How Challenging It Is. It Is Just So Happens That The More High Profile Things I Have Done Have Been Historical Characters.

I Think The Notion That We Are Different Just Because Of Skin Color, And That We Should Be Kept Apart Or Kept From Interbreeding, Is Very Hurtful.

I Never, Ever Do A Film And Just Kind Of Move On. I Think Of Them As Children Of Mine, And You Don't Give Birth To A Baby And Just Leave It On Someone Else's Doorstep. You See It All The Way Through College.

I Truly Believe Slavery Is Why, As A By-product, We Still Have A Disproportionate Amount Of Black Men Incarcerated In America. It Is An Extension Of That Legacy, And That's Not Going To Start To Diminish Until Black People Have A New Sense Of Themselves That Isn't Tied To Slavery And Feeling Inferior. I Think The Church Can Be Instrumental In That, In Terms Of Repentance, Reconciliation And Just Being More Embracing Of Each Other - Not Just On Sunday, But In Life Generally.
