I love to sing. I'm definitely not a very good singer, but when I'm in my shower I get down for sure.
Andre Holland
If I find great material, or a great character, or a great director that wants to do something on TV, or whether it's in film, or whatever it is, man - as long as it's good, and on the level, I'm open to it.
Andre Holland
I want to shift my career back to shows like The Knick. I prefer the classic drama structure.
Andre Holland
Working on Shakespeare and learning about Shakespeare was the big takeaway for me.
Andre Holland
I definitely want to work with people who are artists and who are interested in being their best version of themselves.

When you're playing Shakespeare, it forces you to think and feel and speak all at the same time, which really is what acting is. It expands your imagination and expands your size of thinking.

Barry Jenkins just cast the right people and framed things the right way.
Andre Holland
Things maybe take longer usually when it comes to TV - especially network TV. There are usually multiple levels that you have to go through in terms of the casting director, the producers, the studio, the network, reading with other people.
Andre Holland
I just hope to work with great people, and do things that are challenging for me and that I can be proud of and not have to hide my face about. Those are my guidelines.

There are so many brilliant, trained actors of color in America. If you just think about it, every year in the spring Julliard and NYU and Yale and hundreds of schools across the country graduate classes of trained actors, and in those classes are actors of color. So to say that there aren't enough actors of color is factually inaccurate.
Andre Holland
The horror genre is fun but I'm not sure it is quite right for me.
Andre Holland
Now, perhaps more than ever, we need more and more examples of healing. We need to learn what it takes to heal.
Andre Holland
You have to see through one's faults before you see their need.
Andre Holland
The surgeries were the hardest scenes for me because it's literally balancing so many balls in the air, at the same time, and each surgery is different.
Andre Holland
I had a cheat sheet because I knew Tarell [Alvin McCraney]. His movie is largely autobiographical. I knew about certain events in his life and some of the people he talks about. I had visited the place where he lived many times so I understood innately what that was.
Andre Holland
All the craft skills that I have, I feel like I developed and honed in drama school. It's the most important thing for me.
Andre Holland
Politically, nowadays, as we know and feel, we are similarly underrepresented and not heard.
Andre Holland
I am also producing and writing a bunch.
Andre Holland
I look at it [Moonlight] and young Alex Hibbert who plays the young Chiron gives such a beautiful performance. By the time you get to the third story there have been so many great performances that you forget this kid was brilliant. Everybody does their job. It really is a true ensemble. I wish that were a category at the Oscars.
