Things don't happen that fast in real life.
Mike Colter
It's hard to articulate what everybody else is feeling.
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
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
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.

Comic book heroes are an important part of our culture.

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.

Law enforcement has always had informants and people they've had to deal with, who walk a certain line. They're choosing between the lesser of two evils. They're befriend one person to gain access to another person, who's a bigger fish.
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
Love, for me, is always wanting the best for the other person even if it's not what's best for you.
Mike Colter
I guess it's a bit cliché, but as an actor, I really admire good writing. There are a lot of great ideas out there, but it's the execution that really makes it work.
Mike Colter
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
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.
Mike Colter
I haven't had ice-cream in a year, although I did have a slice of pizza. People don't realise that when you're shooting a movie it's only three months to get in shape for.
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
Dialogue is not always the best way to show emotion, to show your thought process, or to reveal yourself, as a character.
Mike Colter
I met some people in college and I kept cracking away until someone pointed me in the right direction.
