More quotes by Michael B. Jordan
I feel like you have to pull from some personal experiences [to acting]. At least that's how I work sometimes. It's just easier that way. And I try it as best as I can and kind of dissolve myself and become a character, not me, or just blur the lines.
Michael B. Jordan
I think everybody wants to be their own person and be an individual.
Michael B. Jordan
[Chris Evans] is doing an amazing job with Captain America. I really enjoy those films as well so that's kind of pretty much where that was.
Michael B. Jordan
For me, with me, making a film is always about humanity.
Michael B. Jordan
I want the scripts Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't have time for. Joseph Gordon-Levitt isn't available? Call me.
Michael B. Jordan
I haven't been down to Navy Pier in such a long time. I know that's probably the touristy thing to do, but it just reminds me so much of 2000 when I was here shooting [Hardball].
Michael B. Jordan
Now I like to think that I'm in my character's head so much that I don't have to substitute. I'm in the moment I'm living in the moment. And if it's genuine, it's real, and if it comes out it comes out.
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
Don't pretend to know everything. I've been blessed to work with a lot of veteran actors, and I soak up lessons from them like a sponge.
Michael B. Jordan
My forever mission is to take the best elements of both commercial and independent films and bring them together. I learned so much about the art of independent films and I have so much fun in commercial ones. I think that a mix of both is good.
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
I was born with rhythm but I don't know if - I'm not a break dancer.
Michael B. Jordan
Never played football, but I'm an athlete. I'm a competitor.
Michael B. Jordan
As I grow and get older, mature a bit, and work on my big boy voice a little bit, I definitely want to direct.
Michael B. Jordan
You start at a young age, going on auditions, and you think you did a good job and expect to get that role, and you don't, and it's a letdown, a disappointment. So you tell yourself to just do the work and disconnect, because you have no control over the outcome.
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 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
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].
Michael B. Jordan
I'm pretty sure that wasn't Oscar's first time getting harassed or held-up by authorities. And over time you start to feel some type of way when you get pulled over. Oh, I gotta go through this. Again.
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?
Michael B. Jordan
