Dialogue is not always the best way to show emotion, to show your thought process, or to reveal yourself, as a character.

When you look at Harlem - and I lived there almost five years - most of the people who live in Harlem are transplants. They migrate to Harlem from another place. A lot of them are from the south, so they bring those southern influences with them.

I met some people in college and I kept cracking away until someone pointed me in the right direction.

I'll get a nice little break, after doing Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Whether I'm in [his show], I don't know, but there's The Defenders.

Sometimes when you do things right, there's no results.

Part of acting is always just being available emotionally and open to people.

Things don't happen that fast in real life.
