“It was fantastic stepping into this, being a comic book fan myself. I had a great love for the entire world when it comes to superheroes, when it comes JSA, when it comes DC. DC got me into the game as a kid. I know how much the fans really love who this character is. It was a privilege and responsibility to step into his shoes It reinstills in me, belief, faith and hope in your own personal dreams, living your creativity, living your imagination because what we truly made here is magical We’re working our butts off, but we’re living our dreams. I’m just privileged to share this space with the fans and I can’t wait for what they have to say”

“For me, it is the exploration of understanding what Boston is and the city and his [Decourcy’s] place in it,” “He came with a mission and he is still trying to figure out how to accomplish that mission. What makes the city work, the people work, his job environment work. It’s a tasking challenge, working as an Assistant District Attorney in a system where you see the solutions that need to be accomplished, but also see the problems. He’s really trying to establish who he is as a man”

I can step into the shoes on screen that speak to the shoes that I walk every day on the sidewalk. This is not a far-fetched reality for me”

“Todos queriam o mesmo objetivo, mas tinham maneiras diferentes de chegar lá” “Ver aquelas quatro pessoas poderosas num quarto tentando descobrir como trabalhar juntas é monumental. Quando digo poderosas, não é pelo dinheiro, mas pelo potencial de influência de cada uma delas. Ninguém ficam dizendo estou certo, e você errado. É um retrato lindo de amor fraterno”

A few years later, he starts the Black Economic Union"

about Jim Brown
)
:
“You mentioned [Brown] was larger than life, and that is true, all of these men were,” “The thing we had to keep in mind was we’re not playing what WE know of them, we’re playing the human beings. So, we had to strip away the magnitude of their greatness and get down to the human that was going through something that eventually built up to that greatness”

Aldis Hodge said
:
“I felt like Jim served as a translator,” “In this film, the conversation is the star. The conversation is the glue that keeps us in the room and keeps the audience in their seats. It’s a brilliantly crafted conversation by Kemp Powers. I think where we find Jim in this whole spectrum is, he’s able to understand what Malcolm is saying and what he wants while at the same time what Sam is saying and what HE wants. He realizes they’re not hearing each other — and that’s [often] where we are to this day as a culture, in that a lot of us are shooting at the same goal, we’re just using different means of getting there. Jim is trying to bridge the gap between the two guys”

“Fui criado com a Ku Klux Klan por perto. Nada do que está acontecendo é novidade” “O que mudou é que quem sempre negou a existência do racismo e da brutalidade policial não tem mais como negá-las. Então, esse filme é uma grande oportunidade de provocar debates para que tenhamos progresso. A verdade é que não importa quanto sucesso e dinheiro tenhamos, ainda somos negros no mundo e nos Estados Unidos”

"It's very tough because you've got to trust the process, you've got to trust the project. But is this project going to serve, to elevate, the perception of my culture? Or does it serve the detriment of my culture? That is a responsibility that we carry, and it's often the risk we take, as entertainers, giving our portrayals," "What most people don't get is that they don't see that, of the very specific roles that you've chosen, are probably about 80 and 90% of the roles that you had passed your way to get to those roles, were trash, trash, trash, trash"

about Brian Banks
)
:
“I think the most pressure I had was really trying to get Brian’s light and his spirit as accurate as possible when it came to people seeing who this man was. I’m like ‘This is your life…your legacy. I want people to understand the truth of who you are the way that I see you.’ You know he’s all light and positivity and he’s truly survived and thrived from where he once started and prison. So I think that that was the biggest obstacle to really overcome was making sure that people saw who he was as a man and as a human being and not as he was attached to a situation,”
