I`ve been spoiled by this project. I was given the script and went in to read, realizing that this was a powerful story and one that wasn`t told very often.
I worked with the same trainer that worked with Denzel Washington in THe Hurricane. It was three months of training, five days a week, 4 to 5 hours a day. This was followed by a month of choreography.
If I were to wait only for roles that clarify my racial makeup, I`d be waiting for a very, very long time.
