artist cities people
I want to see more people of different backgrounds being cast in films. I want to see people from inner cities being discovered, because that's where you find some really brilliant artists.
stars war want
Who wouldn't want to be in 'Star Wars?' It'd be great.
theatre acting lessons
Ive had plenty of lessons about film acting and theatre acting.
guy three london
Every time I go out in London, I'm not always with my guys. I have three female friends that I'll go out with all the time. I'm the only guy there.
friendly green eco
I like my women very green; you know, eco-friendly.

My dad's a Pentecostal minister, meaning that he's full of charisma. If he's telling a story about Noah's ark, you best know each tiger is going to be having their own little conversation and narrative.
dad names careers
Acting careers dont come out fully formed - not unless your name is Jaden Smith and your dad has done it all.
love-is cities appreciate
I'm a London fanatic. That's my city. I love being from there, you don't appreciate it until you go out.

goes-on earth legacy
Not everybody has that mentality and that's fine, but once Robert Redford leaves this earth - later rather than sooner - his legacy will go on.
hard-work blessing awards
Guys, I haven't been doing this for a long time, it's a fluke! I'm gonna share this BAFTA award with all the young dreamers who are determined, who are hard working, who are quite frankly amazing. This is also for you. Blessings for your path and God bless.

When I was in primary school, I was given a five-line script in 'Anansi the Spider Man,' and I decided to just improv and make it my own. For a second, I felt like Kevin Hart because everyone was laughing. I just continued to do it. Why not?
