I don't have social media so I'm kind of in a bubble, but I hear there's a lot going on.
Mike Colter
It's hard to articulate what everybody else is feeling.
Mike Colter
When you're casting, you get a page or two - just enough to do the scene. Now that you're in the world, you get the whole script.
Mike Colter
When you take the job, you never think about how many days you're going to take bullets. Sometimes you go on set and you're thinking, Ah, a day when I don't have to get shot. This is going to be a nice day.
Mike Colter
Auditions are great, and you definitely want to continue to make progress as an actor, you want to continue to see some advancement in your career. But when you get out there, you don't realize how many auditions you have to go on before you actually get work.

I'm actually filming all the time, and I don't have much time to do anything. I've always been that way.

I met some people in college and I kept cracking away until someone pointed me in the right direction.

I respond to powerful women. I'm not intimidated by that, I like that, it's not something I shy away from, so I don't want women who are looking for me to take care of them. To me, that's a turn-off. I respond to strong, powerful, independent women.

I've learned over the years, when someone is complaining or wants to vent and has something they want to tell you, they don't necessarily want you to fix it.
Mike Colter
You see a lot of Baptist churches in Harlem, you see a lot of the same kind of cuisine, the soul food - there's a lot of places that remind you of its southern roots.
Mike Colter
The awkward thing is the people in the room besides us. It's not us. It's just the 20 or 30 people that are around on set, who normally wouldn't be on set. That's always interesting.
Mike Colter
The writers are very good about misdirection and changeups, and that's what's great about it. We always think we know what's going to happen and then they throw a curveball that you don't see coming.
Mike Colter
As long as I didn't have to put on the tiara and the chains and the big yellow shirt for the whole series, I was up for anything.
Mike Colter
What I enjoyed about being in the world of Jessica Jones, as Luke Cage, is that I wasn't front and center because it was Jessica Jones' story, but it allowed me to find the character from a different perspective.
Mike Colter
Love, for me, is always wanting the best for the other person even if it's not what's best for you.
Mike Colter
Luke Cage is using his open hand instead of a closed fist. It's a little disrespectful but it's very effective. Some people call it a pimp slap, we call it smack-fu. He's doing you a favour by hitting you with an open hand. It hurts, it renders you unconscious but you live.
Mike Colter
When I find material that gives me a natural yet unique character point of view and has well - developed characters throughout the script, it makes the hairs on my arm stand up.
Mike Colter
I've never really been into doing a lot of social media, but it's a great way for people to talk amongst themselves on a large platform and to have a large conversation with people who also enjoy the same thing.
Mike Colter
Sometimes when you do things right, there's no results.
