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.
