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.

I don't have social media so I'm kind of in a bubble, but I hear there's a lot going on.

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.

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.

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.

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

I'm embarrassed to say that I don't have a lot of hobbies. It's not because I don't have interests, it's just that I don't have the time.

Tequila is my drink. It is my favorite alcohol, my favorite liquor because, you know, it's a stimulant and not a depressant. If I go to a party and everyone's been drinking and I don't have time to really catch up - I'm not trying to get drunk but I want to feel good - I drink tequila.

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.

It's hard to articulate what everybody else is feeling.

I've always wanted to be on a show that's well respected and had critical acclaim and that people like to watch, and at the same time find something that for me as an actor is interesting and challenging.

Part of acting is always just being available emotionally and open to people.

I try to stay incognito as much as I can. I don't go places that people would expect to see me because I'm trying to lay low.

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.

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.
