More quotes by Mike Colter
It's hard to articulate what everybody else is feeling.
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
Dialogue is not always the best way to show emotion, to show your thought process, or to reveal yourself, as a character.
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
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
Things don't happen that fast in real life.
Mike Colter
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.
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
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
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
Love, for me, is always wanting the best for the other person even if it's not what's best for you.
Mike Colter
As an actor you just want to continue to work on things that you like. You can be in this business a long time and consistently working and just be totally artistically unfulfilled.
Mike Colter
Most of the people you look at in the early days of Harlem - the zoot suits, the music, the style of fashion, the vibrant colors - that's all influences from the south.
Mike Colter
This show [Jessica Jones] was exploring the aftermath, and that is unique. You're sitting there going, I know what happens. This is the aftermath. You watch her daily life and how she dealt with people, like new prospects for love or friends that were close to her, but she didn't know if she could trust them or if they were enemies.
Mike Colter
Part of acting is always just being available emotionally and open to people.
Mike Colter
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.
Mike Colter
So often, when you're playing the lead in your own show, it is all about you.
Mike Colter
Sometimes when you do things right, there's no results.
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.
