More quotes by 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 think everybody wants to be their own person and be an individual.
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
For AXE to take a chance on me and to help me, you know, collaborating with them was just a really, really big deal for me. It shows that they bought into me and vice versa so it's a good relationship.
Michael B. Jordan
My life is so random. Certain things I can't even explain. There's a thing about being lucky and... I feel like certain things are just, like, in your cards. I'm just walking the path that's already set.
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
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
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.
Michael B. Jordan
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 was born and raised in the Bay Area. It's the place I got a deep, deep affection for.
Michael B. Jordan
We were shooting this movie called Hardball, with Keanu Reeves. We shot in the city, and I just remember I couldn't really do too much. At 13 or 14, you couldn't go out to any nightlife.
Michael B. Jordan
When I hear people comparing Mike's [Jordan] work to Denzel [Washington] I think it's amazing.. Because Denzel is such an amazing, textured actor. And I think that that comes with Mike too. I'm not thinking about how they look, though I'm thinking about what they're able to accomplish.
Michael B. Jordan
Phone calls are much more personal than texting and then when you get a girl on the phone, it's like you ask a question and you get a response back. For a text message, they can read it and get back to it whenever they want to. So that makes a difference, almost like a power play in a way.
Michael B. Jordan
I want to do more films.
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
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 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
I was born with rhythm but I don't know if - I'm not a break dancer.
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. And music excites me because it puts me in a mind state, whatever that may be.
Michael B. Jordan
