Second 81 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: and nine, and I was one of the better locations 82 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: up into and uh, you know, let's get a great 83 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: job as sign and not Jim Primp locations manager did 84 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: a fantastic job. Well, it's awesome. So when when you 85 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: get a script like this, you know it's a fatal 86 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: attraction type deal. Woman of man get hooked good the 87 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: other and then all of a sudden one doesn't want 88 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: to release in the relationship. When you get a script 89 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: like this, how do you approach it? Stephen? Uh? In 90 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: what regards in regards to your character, because in your character, 91 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: your character is injured I would like to say injured, 92 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: and then he's trying to recover physically, and then so 93 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: it's like a communication issue. I like to believe that 94 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: really led to this kind of disconnect between Nia's character, 95 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: which plays she plays your wife. She's a hard worker, 96 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,119 Speaker 1: and then you kind of like a recovery mode because 97 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: you're still in rehabilitation, so that intimacy, intimacy really is 98 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: lost there for a period. Am I am I writing 99 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Uh? Yeah, the that's in communication is 100 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: a big part of that. But as far as your 101 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: question of how I approached it, Um, I've been injured 102 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: before I had surgery. I had a knee surgery when 103 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: I was playing uh baseball, And so I was able 104 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 1: to draw from that experience what it's like to be, 105 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: you know, plaid off and not being able to do 106 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: what she longly do, know what you love. Uh. So 107 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: I was able to draw from my experience, and then 108 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: with the character himself, I was able to draw from 109 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: my experience growing up in the Bay Area. There's a 110 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: lot of the film is set in the Bay Area, 111 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: and I grew up there, and that, you know, there 112 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: was a lot of sensibilities and even down to the 113 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: layering of the clothing that I was able to draw 114 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: from my memories and and my experience living up there 115 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: and put myself into the mindset of somebody that's up there, 116 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: u y successful and just having to uh come back 117 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: from an injury. I was able to combine those two 118 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: things to create market right right because when I was 119 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: looking at the movie and uh, you know, well produced, 120 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: well crafted, well active movie. And they think about Netflix, 121 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: is that that's the next to the consul A different 122 00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: game right now for streaming and uh premier movies and 123 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: and if I'm not if I'm not mistaken because you 124 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,559 Speaker 1: can always correct me. It's like it's like their premier 125 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: in these movies and like over a hundred countries correct 126 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: with Netflix premiers a movie. Correct from what I A 127 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety countries? Yeah, a hundred or something like 128 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: a hundred and eighty three million pery, Wow, in a 129 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety countries. And the reason I bring that 130 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: up because the reason I bring that up because let's 131 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: let's be just this is us talking in the business 132 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: and how they've been treating black movies, okay, and of 133 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: movies with black leads, you know, domestically their premiere, but 134 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: they never saw an audience internationally, and so so we 135 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: never had the benefit of doing movies. And when I 136 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: did think like a man, I think like a man too. 137 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: We premier domestically, even though we made eighty million dollars 138 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: domestically we may have went to England, May a little 139 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: bit in Caribbean and then uh then in Africa. That 140 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: was it. And to see that now that black talent 141 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: is now being exposed in a whole wor hundred and 142 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: any countries, now that is a that's an amazing opportunity 143 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: that I feel that Netflix is provided for African American talent. Absolutely, 144 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: that's I mean, the you're dead on the nail with 145 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: the the normal lack of international representation in our film. Um, 146 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, for some reason, they don't our films don't 147 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: do well overseasons, so they don't they don't buy them. 148 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: But I think that might have a lot to do 149 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 1: with the same reasons that we weren't getting a lot 150 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: of opportunities domestically for a while, is people just were 151 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: unfamiliar with the talent and the you know, the assets 152 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: that we bring to the table. So I think that 153 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: what Netflix is doing is pro writing a platform for 154 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: us to showcase our abilities on the international stage, and 155 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: that opens people's minds and opens people's eyes to what 156 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: they've been missing. And now you know, then later down 157 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: the road, if if the theatrical model comes back all 158 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: the way, um, it will open more doors, let's think, 159 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: for us to be able to pre sell internationally and 160 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: even you know, sell internationally after the fact. But I 161 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: think that Netflix is doing a fantastic job of taking 162 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: movies immediately global and giving everybody an opportunity to see 163 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: what's what's all out there. It's finally here. The season 164 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: of celebration, and no matter how you celebrate with family 165 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: and friends, whether you're preparing for Reis magos or Karamu 166 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: lighting the Manura, are going to midnight mass, Coals has 167 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: just what you need to make those traditions special.

I've been in entertainment, writing 201 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: sitcoms and writing reality shows and dramas ninety two in 202 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: this business. And so I've said, I've done black sitcoms 203 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: and just been trapped on the w B format or 204 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: up n per format or c W format, and they 205 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: called us black shows. And that's that's it. And and 206 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: and I when I see a movie like this, this 207 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: is entertainment, Stephen, this is entertainment. It's relatable to everybody. 208 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: Everybody has emotional issues, everybody has a child's in college, 209 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: everybody has meet crazy easy people out there who don't 210 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: want that you want to, don't want to be bothered with. 211 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: I just felt there was a universal movie. I'm sure 212 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: when you took on the script that was a whole 213 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: perspective you had about failure, attractions, failure, failure affairs. Well, correct, Yeah, 214 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: I did. I saw a lot for everybody. I mean, 215 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: the main thing that attracted me was being able to 216 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: work with Mia and omar Um, you know, being a 217 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: fan of both of theirs and being friends with both 218 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: of them outside of the business. Uh, it was just 219 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: a great opportunity. But when I got to read the 220 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: script and and and see what was happening out of 221 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: that lot, there's a lot of relatable subject matter here. 222 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people will be able to, 223 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: you know, just to resonate with a lot of people 224 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: because a lot, like you said, a lot of people 225 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: go through these same life stories, and a lot of 226 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: people unfortunately go through this specific life story and so 227 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: they you know, from one side or the other, they'll 228 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,599 Speaker 1: be able to relate. So yeah, I think it's pretty relatable, 229 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: uh in the premise and you know, hopefully it's not 230 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: too relatable in the uh plot. You know. Well, I 231 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: think that when you look at now, now you got 232 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: physical in the end, okay, got physical in the with 233 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: the with I'm not gonna give away the storyline, but 234 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: was it any additional training and he he started training involved 235 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: what you uh with the physicality near the end of 236 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: the movie. Uh, No, No, I Uh, I had to 237 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: do my normal you know training, which was weightlifting and 238 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: you know and uh you know, proper diet and all 239 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: that you get ready for us shoot because you know, 240 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: there's some some shirtless stuff in there, and I always 241 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: like to be, you know, as sharp as I can 242 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: be in that in that regard. But as far as 243 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: the the the reality of the role, No, I didn't 244 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: have to do any extra training. You know, I've done 245 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 1: training in the past with fighting and that kind of stuff, 246 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: so you know, I'm pretty pretty well versed in in that. Uh, 247 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: that facet of it. But you know I did have 248 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: to go and you know we had to rehearse the 249 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: actual writing, but we had that. We had the choreograph, 250 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: we had the chore I'm talking about, you know. So, 251 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: but you know, other than the choreograph and the choreography, Uh, 252 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: there wasn't anything extra that I had to do. I 253 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: was you know, I brought the skill sets to the 254 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: table with me. Hello, I brought the skill sets to 255 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: the table. I love that. So and when you when 256 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: you say being in an opportunity, you're working when you're 257 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: alone all my epps and she plays your your your wife, 258 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: and you have a daughter that comes home from college 259 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: or but she's about to in her first year of college, right, 260 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: she's actually there and she's coming home for she's coming 261 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: home for a break and uh, and in dealing with 262 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: your career and so and this is what I want 263 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: to get a little detail about it because I always 264 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: try to look at movies a little bit deeper than 265 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: most people see it because you're trying to find your 266 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: footing again in your career. And then she's like she's 267 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: like moving on and establishing her career in her own office. 268 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: And so because I'm trying to get the dynamics of 269 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: why that could possibly happen in a relationship like that, 270 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: Why would she even step out for that little half 271 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: a minute in your mind? In the script, what do 272 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: you think led to that with the relationship she kind 273 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: of had with all my ELPs? Well, there was, like 274 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: you said, the injury brought a lot into into play. 275 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: You know, you're laid up, you can't move. It was 276 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: like six months, right, you know you're yeah, yeah. And 277 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: there's also uh Meds involved that if you remember. Uh 278 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if they actually left this part in 279 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: the in the not I don't remember, but there when 280 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: we were shooting, there as a part where it says 281 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: the Meds had put me in a place where I 282 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: wasn't really able to fulfill my husband ly duties, you 283 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I wasn't, you know, I wasn't. 284 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if it if it made the cut 285 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: or not. I don't remember that line. I just but 286 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: I can understand that it was in the scene. I 287 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: I said it in the scene when I was playing 288 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: golf with Homemor's character. Right. They may have cut that, 289 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: they may have cut that out. But regardless what I 290 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: think what led to it was you know, the injury, 291 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: being incapacitated, the med's you know, bringing you know, the 292 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: Beto down and and the you know, just the interest 293 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: and you know, she just was feeling uh neglected, and 294 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: you know when she ran into a guy that she 295 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: knew and he expressed, you know, such strong interest and 296 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: they you know, they got a couple of drinks in them, 297 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: and you know, I think her are just got let down. 298 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 1: And I think that, but I think what led to 299 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: it was just the you know, the mundane married life 300 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: that you know, they have a nineteen year old, so 301 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: they obviously have been together for twenty years more and 302 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 1: and you know, a lot of times that's what happens. 303 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: It's just becomes a routine and uh, people look for, 304 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: you know, an extra spark, and when they find it, 305 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,239 Speaker 1: it can sometimes lead to, you know, things that they 306 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: shouldn't do. Well. Definitely, um in this movie, I really 307 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: um it was good. I enjoyed it. I really really 308 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: enjoyed the enjoyed the acting, and enjoyed the relationship that 309 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: you know, I can understand, Like like you said, Stephen Bishop, 310 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm talking to Stephen Bishoon is one of the stars 311 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: of Fatal Affair. He's up. July sixteen, Netflix new global 312 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: release of Fatal Affair.

When I when I 315 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: look at a movie like this, and it's always about relatabilities, 316 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: all about did they pull you in? Did I related? 317 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: Because I did? I understand? Did I have sympathy for 318 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: your character and understanding that you were recovering from a 319 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: physical injury? Did I understand where she came from? But 320 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: she did pull back? You know, she didn't. She didn't 321 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: fully commit. And so even though there was liquor involved 322 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: and all that, so I was still I felt. I 323 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: felt her character was still saved. And I thought the 324 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: script writing and the director was fantastic. Overall. Your thoughts 325 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: on the movie as we wrapped this up, uh, Stephen? Uh?
