I want to aspire to something like what Denzel Washington does, which is try to find scripts written for white actors - or Jodie Foster, who reads scripts for male actors.

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.

Denzel Washington is someone I look up to.

I did 'Fences' off-broadway at the Beacon Theater, so it's amazing that Denzel Washington and Viola Davis brought it to Broadway.

Mix one part Denzel Washington and two parts Eva Mendes and you have a nice hot cocktail.

Denzel Washington is a big Hollywood movie star now. But he started out as an actor in the Negro Ensemble company.
