  • “It’s a full contact sport. I wanted to challenge myself. It was about trying to test my abilities, trying to grow as an artist.” John David Washington discusses the difference between acting on camera and acting on Broadway in “The Piano Lesson,” his experience working with legends Samuel L. Jackson and director LaTanya Richardson Jackson, and whether he believes in ghosts. #DailyShow #Comedy

    This man stands ten toes down on his own and is absolutely amazing. Sometimes I hear his dad's voice when he's talking, but before I knew that Denzel was his father, I could tell that he was going to be great

    Will never forget watching Denzel Washington almost 10years ago correcting someone who was brown nosing. He said my children are a testament of my wife or something along those line. And I was blown away! Over my decades watching celebrities' interviews, I can only remember 2 others giving credits to their wives. And he does look like his mother Pauletta, & what a beautiful smile too.

    That voice...the way he says "on" and pronounces all the "n"'s like a Frenchman. That's Denzel, right there 😀😀

    Yes, he does sound just like his Father, but he looks more like his Mother! He's an awesome actor, just like his Father!💕💕💕

    John David Washington parents Pauletta & Denzel are both actors on stage, film,& tv. When acting is truly your art & craft you have to perform on stage!
