00:00What's up?
00:01He's alright.
00:02What was going on in this room?
00:03I could hear all sorts of...
00:04I don't know.
00:05Whatever it was, it's coming from her.
00:06All I heard was, um, John David is really good looking, is what I heard.
00:10Who said that?
00:11I heard that, and I was like...
00:12No, no, no.
00:13You didn't hear that.
00:14Maybe that was just in my head.
00:18Nobody said that here.
00:19He gotta embrace me, John.
00:20Look at him.
00:21Yes, yes.
00:22We're very excited about the piano lesson.
00:23Yeah.
00:24So many lessons.
00:25So many lessons.
00:26Yeah, this piano.
00:28It's so good to see you two.
00:30And do you know what?
00:31I was going to say the first thing I noticed was the chemistry on screen.
00:34It just seems like you are a proper, real family.
00:37And I'm seeing it before my eyes now.
00:39Do you just feel like you're family now?
00:41No, it's real.
00:42Absolutely.
00:43This is my brother.
00:44For real.
00:45It was very natural.
00:46And obviously, thank you for saying that, because it influenced the performances.
00:50We were free to try and fail and fall and get up and go again.
00:54You know, and that kind of trust.
00:56The environment was set by our leader, though, by Malcolm.
00:58He made it so to where we can trust each other.
01:00And having the OGs there as well, you know, Michael Potts, Samuel Jackson,
01:05Wilsonians who knew August Wilson and done his works for years,
01:09that all helped in the comfort level to be able to go for it,
01:13to really be confident in our performances.
01:16What is his annoying traits, then, if you're seen as like a brother?
01:19Listen, I complimented you.
01:21As a character?
01:22I complimented you when I came in and I heard that someone said
01:25you're really good looking.
01:26You set me up.
01:27And then you said that wasn't a conversation that was had in here,
01:29and I said maybe it was just in my head.
01:30So that's a good compliment.
01:31Now we need to balance it.
01:33He would get on my nerves when he would, um, just kidding.
01:36Nothing.
01:37That's a lie.
01:38Don't go ahead and say it.
01:39I never.
01:41No.
01:43He's always ready.
01:45He's a gift.
01:47He's a blooming onion.
01:50Blooming onion?
01:51He's a blooming onion.
01:53He's a dwindle.
01:57We're going to stop that gift.
01:58Yeah, get us a Gatorade.
02:00He's just a giver, right?
02:03He's always present.
02:05He throws his body into it, literally and physically.
02:08And just, he's so present.
02:11He's just a leader, too.
02:15This is so wholesome.
02:16I honor you.
02:20Right.
02:22And vice versa then, but maybe on the flip side, let's say nice things.
02:26Yes, well, to be such a powerhouse of a performer,
02:30to do things that, you know, I strive to do as an actor,
02:34like to reach the kind of levels of the art of performance in a moment,
02:40that's what we all strive to get.
02:44And yet she is extremely lighthearted and, you know,
02:49the life of the party, really.
02:51I feel like the makeup trailer be live when she comes in.
02:54I can see that now.
02:55She is like, don't let it fool you.
02:57And I didn't know that going in, I'm just a fan of her work,
02:59but I'm thinking she's like, it's like a, all right.
03:01It's loud.
03:02It's how you doing.
03:04It's all that stuff.
03:06So, which is a great balance to this, like, deep, deep artist.
03:10She is hilarious.
03:12And we're waiting on the comedy.
03:13We are waiting on the comedy.
03:14I know, like, we are waiting on it because you blow me away every single time,
03:18and I'm always left, like, crying and just wanting to hug you.
03:21She's so funny.
03:22When are we getting the comedy?
03:23She's so freaking funny.
03:24You were ready to pee your pants unwillingly.
03:26Yes.
03:27On it.
03:29Honestly, I can just imagine this is what it was like on set for you guys.
03:33Yeah, no doubt.
03:34Because you were also in this intimate set,
03:36and you had Uncle Samuel there as well.
03:37You were being directed by your brother.
03:39Was it just a lot of laughs?
03:41Because it's also heavy, a lot of this as well, right?
03:43I think it's heavy.
03:44I think it's complex too.
03:46It's a lot of different dynamics of the human experience totally.
03:50The OGs are definitely funny and beautiful.
03:53And I think that I was the butt of a lot of jokes, and I'm okay with that.
04:00Excuse me.
04:01Excuse me.
04:02No, you weren't.
04:03No, you weren't.
04:04Yes, I was.
04:05In fact, Uncle Sam never messed with you like he messed with us.
04:07I'm pretty sure he said something about my cakes was dry.
04:12And Michael Potts said something about my cakes was dry.
04:15And then they ate the cakes joyfully.
04:17She would bake for us, and, man, they were masterful.
04:20What did you have?
04:21You had a carrot.
04:22It was a carrot.
04:23No, no, no.
04:24You told me.
04:25There ain't no multiple flavors.
04:26It was just carrot.
04:27Really?
04:28It was just carrot.
04:29And that thing, it was hitting.
04:30But, yeah, I guess you're right.
04:31That is true.
04:32Hand whipped.
04:33I didn't do no electricity.
04:34Oh, see?
04:35She's a grafter.
04:36Right?
04:37She's a grafter.
04:38That's called love, baby.
04:39I told you.
04:40I forgot about that.
04:41They didn't ask what you love.
04:42But they kept wanting it.
04:43Because they wanted some, and I didn't bring it for everybody initially.
04:46I neglected that.
04:47I apologize publicly, everyone, again.
04:49There it is.
04:50I don't want to try this cake.
04:51How can you have the time not be baking cakes?
04:53That was another thing.
04:54It was kind of crazy.
04:55Do you know what I mean?
04:56I was on set a lot.
04:57But when you love somebody, that's what you do.
05:03That's what you do.
05:04You show them.
05:05You feed them.
05:07You fuel them.
05:08Had to beg for it, but, yeah.
05:09Yeah, we got it.
05:10We got it done.
05:11We got her done.
05:13I'm pretty sure you got, like, three loaves.
05:15Don't worry about quantity.
05:16You know what I mean?
05:17Everybody else didn't get that many.
05:18Oh, did y'all ask him?
05:19Yeah.
05:20But anyway.
05:21I love this so much.
05:22Can we just have, like, a series?
05:24Just you two chatting?
05:25Yep.
05:26Wouldn't you love that?
05:27Let's just keep it going.
05:28That comedy going to be me and you.
05:31Let's not watch.
05:33I'm subscribed.
05:34I'm down.
05:35I'm in for that.
05:36Honestly, that would be dope.
05:37I would love that.
05:38That would be awesome.
05:39That would be fantastic.
05:41I am getting kicked out, guys.
05:42Listen, lots of love.
05:44Thank you so much.
