- Vincent & Nigel sit down with the ForAllNerds to speak on their roles in Godfather of Harlem, what it's like for Nigel to portray an iconic role like Malcolm X and Vincent shares his views about the fact that for many people watching Godfather, this will be their first time learning about the real people behind the characters.
Nigel Thatch is amazing as Malcolm X
How these guys don't become Muslim is amazing to me
Yeah it was Oscar worthy
I loved this interview. Loved Nigel's portrayal of Malcom. Loved Vincent since Law & Order. But watchng GFoH did have me pause the movie often to check my facts. It even made me go back and re-read chapters of books I had on Malcolm X and his speeches. I re-listened to his speech titled "Bullet or the Ballot" which had me interested to learn more about the term "Colonialism" and the events of Revolutionary and Civil Wars. Of course when I was in school learning history wasn't that interesting but now as a man of a certain age, it held my attention. Malcolm's speeches are timeless and relevant today. Listening to his speeches are haunting, saddening, and inspiring. To me, stay woke has a whole new deeper meaning.
This man sounds and looks almost like Malcolm X twin
Facts
Yeah, sort off. But there both two different people and individuals.
Both are great actors. Vincent is freaking amazing. I admire his range of acting. He really adopts the traits of each character her portrays.
Nigel as malcom x is excellent
great acting on this show. Can't believe the range Vincent has. I'm not wishing him to say "Vanessa!" while watching GOH at all which is amazing.
hahaaaaa yaz
These 2 are amazing whole cast are awesome best show I have seen in years
Both of them are awesome on the series.
I remember seeing Nigel in an episode of Girlfriends. I immediately said he should play Malcolm X. That episode aired in the first season way before Selma and GOH. I couldn't think of a better look alike than him.
Vincent is a Master !
I told my family ,
"that's the kid from 'Full Metal Jacket', they said, "really? that guy?" yeah. w/ shorter hair. a different kind of soldier.
Great interview!😀
Thank you!
The Chin and Brother X!!! These two and ADC (Giancarlo Esposito) really set the tone for the show. I was ecstatic to watch the trailer and read articles about how X had a close friendship with Bumpy. It would be even more crazy if Redd Foxx's character shows up somewhere and Malcolm points him out and they laugh at old times just like what Bumpy and Malcolm did in the pilot. Malcolm ran with Redd Foxx and was a cellmate with Bumpy. Who would've known. Nigel comes very close to Denzel as he embodied Malcolm on a whole new level. I hope the show does not do a time jump and in the future, the second or third season stretches a whole year between 1964 and 1965, so we could see if Bumpy and Malcolm's friendship ended cause Bumpy refused to give up on his territory in Harlem, and what was the effect that Malcolm's assassination had on the whole Harlem community.
*mindblown*
Incredible show. I take my hat off to the producers of this series.
Man the amount of movement they doing with their hands let me know both their roles affected them personally. I don’t mean to sound like it’s a 100% fact but it’s crazy to have seen their performance and see them waiting to answer a question about the role.
first off i love the show and the history behind it. i am an itailian man. malcom was a great man gone too soon. i am wondering why in this interview they both look very uncomfortable though. the truth is the truth. let the truth be told.
Vincent D'onofrio came a long way from Private Pile in full metal jacket
Vincent said some real shit ✊🏾 much respect 💪🏾
Hello. Hbo. This is your new Tony Soprano 2.0. Vincent D
This story was amazing now fine the series look at one episode and watch the entire season in one sitting
Nigel played a very good Malcom X. It's a hard choice between him or Denzel. They both were very good. Ima go with Denzel though
That’s how good Nigel was.
Denzel did, after all, carry a feature film. but Nigel is first rate in this thing. great closing scene where he and Bumpy are looking out Malcom's windows, holding carbines. based on a real photograph. I guess there will be more, before Bumpy has his heart attack. I thought it was a perfect ending
Good choice in music.
He talks the way he do in character. Im mad he wasn't in 3rd season....
I don't know much about history.
All I know is that All praise is due to Allah for the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
