I enjoy challenging perspective - challenging ideas of what it means to be a black man.

I really appreciate Barry Jenkins as a filmmaker and the fact that he's always wanting to push the envelope and challenge perspective and make people uncomfortable in a way that doesn't seem like it's allowed anymore.

It's important to me for the world to see black men in different capacities - capacities in which they're probably not used to seeing them.

I care a lot about who I'm working with as directors and other actors.

And I highly recommend for all the women in the world, even if they're 71, you can never take for granted that he loves you. It's always good to flirt with him. It's a great sport.

When I was three or four, only football was in my head. I went 10 years, and nothing changed - only football, football, football. The strange thing is, nobody played football in my family before.

Since I was in high school, I wanted to play professional football and professional baseball, be a two-sport star.

When some people were going around being surf bums and tennis bums, I was being a gallery bum. I really liked galleries.
