More quotes by Michael B. Jordan
I've always wanted to direct and as I grow and I get older and I get older I just want to let that evolve.
Michael B. Jordan
I want the scripts Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't have time for. Joseph Gordon-Levitt isn't available? Call me.

Sometimes family doesn't always consist of your relatives or by blood. Sometimes your best friends can feel more like family than your cousins. I think everybody kind of has that same feeling. When you go through an accident together, when you go through a traumatic event, sometimes that brings you closer together.
Michael B. Jordan
For me the movie [Fruitvale Station ] wasn't about that. The movie's about [Oscar Grant] life. And what happens on the platform is a very short part of the film. It's from Oscar's perspective. From the perspectives of the relationships that he's involved with.
Michael B. Jordan
Watching a really good movie excites me, because it makes we want to get up off the couch and go shoot something and act in a scene.
Michael B. Jordan
As human beings, why does it take somebody to feel like they're close to us for us to see their humanity? Why can't we see the humanity in people that are distant from us?

My mother's in my life, but at the time you imagine your mom passing away, not being there ... as a kid you try to think of something that hurts you the most ... It was just a tool [in Hardball].

[Ryan Gosling] just got by because he's a cute kid? Yeah. I was an ugly kid The Mickey Mouse Club wasn't for me.

I definitely want to direct. This is just another learning experience for me, to get a chance to hear the questions and concerns the directors have, some of their fears. It's a team sport. You have to give everybody what they need so they are able to perform at their best.

I've always been a fan of AXE and when I heard about their new product and they sent it out to me for me to try and smell and I was like, oh man. It's hard for me to talk about something I don't care about or I'm not really into but once I tried it out for myself I was like, wow okay I can get into this [ collaboration].
Michael B. Jordan
I think it's just easier for people to put you in a box or a lane because you look similar. I think that's unfair for anybody in any situation.
Michael B. Jordan
Honestly, I want to do films. I want to make that move from actor to producer, like Will Smith.
Michael B. Jordan
Acting for me sometimes is taking whatever personal experiences I have and try to apply that [to a role].
Michael B. Jordan
I'm extremely blessed. There's a lot of people trying to exactly what I'm doing, but I'm a part of that 9.1 percent that's actually having their dream come true. I just don't take that for granted.
Michael B. Jordan
Start producing, some writing, directing is definitely what I want to do and I'll be doing a lot more in the future as well.

Working with [Kyle Chandler] in the scene was like playing tennis. You work with really talented actors, I think they make other actors look really, really good.
Michael B. Jordan
I was born with rhythm but I don't know if - I'm not a break dancer.
Michael B. Jordan
[Kyle Chandler] taught me how to listen very well and reacting. There's a lot of improv. And to be able to do that on the spot you really have to be in tune with what the other person is saying instead of just waiting for your cue line or waiting for a word for you to deliver your next line.
Michael B. Jordan
I'm a professional at what I do. I'm an actor. I've been on enough movie sets to know the difference between a stage light and an apple box. I know the difference. Why? Because I've been around it long enough and I know.
Michael B. Jordan
Watching a really good movie excites me, because it makes we want to get up off the couch and go shoot something and act in a scene. And music excites me because it puts me in a mind state, whatever that may be.
