A lot of times black actors get stuck in a box. They’re up against a lot of limitations for the kind of films that they get approached about. It’s easy to get stuck in a box and just be approached about nothing but urban films Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had the perspective that roles come into my life when I need them most and sort of teach me lessons. The same can be true of films, films are released into society to aid in a lesson, inspire people, comfort people Picture Quote #1

It’s quite a dangerous career move to go wilfully on making films that may not find a distributor Picture Quote #1

It just seems like that because I do a lot of independent films that don’t get to the mainstream Picture Quote #1
