It was good to back there and in a way do it all over again. It doesn t really faze me anymore. I ve been doing this for a long time, so I guess I ve gotten use to it. Remember, I made Juice when I was 17, so I ve been a working actor my entire adult life. I think it great.
Black audiences are hungry to be seen in the movies from a different light.
We all know that there s more to the Black experience than life in the hood, but the bottom line is that those films make a lot of money. Now gangster dramas and films about inner city life are certainly important, we just need to see more balance. In the past you ve spoken a great deal about broadening your based into other areas of entertainment like directing and screen writing. I m pretty confident that I could direct a film, but it probably wouldn t come out in a way that I would like. Right now, I m goanna wait and learn more about directing movies.
