John David Washington on his Broadway debut
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- John David Washington originally wanted to avoid following in the footsteps of his father, actor Denzel Washington. But after an injury sidelined his football career, he auditioned for the part of a football player - and launched a successful new career, starring in "BlacKkKlansman," "Tenet," and the new film "Amsterdam." He talks with "Sunday Morning" contributor Kelefa Sanneh about being "Denzel's son," and making his Broadway debut in a revival of August Wilson's "The Piano Lesson," playing the role created by his costar Samuel L. Jackson 35 years ago.

He looks just like his mother and sounds just like his father. But John David Washington is an amazing actor in his own right. LOVE his work.
He looks and sounds like his dad to me lol
I agree 1000%, looks like Mom and sounds like Pop.
Haha I said the exact same thing.
AGREE Completely!
Yes he is a talent on his own. So much potential
If you close your eyes..he sound soooo much like his father! Very talented!
exactly what i was thinking!
Sounds exactly like Denzel omgosh!
That's it! No need to re-write it😂😂😂
Sounds like his daddy, looks like his momma 😂
John David is amazingly talented......even more though, is how genuinely humble and reverent he is to those who came before him. No doubt he is his own man.
He will never be his father. Ever.
Perfectly said. A fine family.
Comes from good pedigree
@@yvonneplant9434 He's not trying to be! He's his own person. Stop seeking attention
@@yvonneplant9434 he seems well aware of that and is trying to carve out his own lane and make his own way.
He is so delightful. Denzel and his lovely wife did an amazing job raising their son.
He truly was born for this life in theater and film. His parents' most perfect gift to us all.
What a sincerely charming man. He's a treasure. We need a million more like him. You just be YOU, that's more than enough.
So agree with your comment.
He sounds exactly like his father but looks like his mother. If I close my eyes I can hear Denzel Washington who was my all time favorite actor. All the best!
That’s exactly what I thought! His voice is very much like his father’s and he looks a lot like his mother!
you hit right on the head!!
I love that he speaks of his mother first and with so much love. I don’t think people understand how strong she has to be as wife and a mother.
He's a momma's boy for real
He''s such an interesting combination of both parents. He looks like Mom and sounds like Dad. Can't wait to see him in this.
It's the quiet confidence and humility for me. Great actor too.
If you close your eyes, he sounds just like his dad . John David is a fine actor. This Apple didn't fall far from his family tree .
John David was AWESOME in The Piano Lesson!! If you can, please go see this phenomenal play by the legendary playwright August Wilson. ❤
Humble and handsome😊
Sounds like his father. WOW. Close your eyes and listen....
He’s a talented actor. Has his father’s voice and his mother’s looks. ❤
Such a great interview. I love how he has so much love and admiration for his parents. 😊
He’s one of my favorite actors right now. I hope he gets more roles in the future
kinda surreal to hear him mention his uncle Woodson as we all know his mom's side of the family well in the small town of Newton, NC where Pauletta comes from. They were pillars of the black community and all around good people. John David comes from good and talented stock in so many ways.
I saw him in "The Piano Lesson " on Broadway and he was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!! Loved him as Boy Willie...🥰
I enjoyed watching him play college football back in the day. I enjoy watching him perform in movies now, and I hope he has success on the Broadway stage.
Really? You kept up with Morehouse football??
@@lewstone5430 Yes, Go Maroon Tigers!
Happy to see John David come into his own career. He is powerful in his own right. Looking forward to him having a long career and winning his own slew of awards.
John David is a good combination of His Mom & Dad in the looks category, but when He starts talking He sounds just like His Dad & plus, He's come into His own when it comes to them acting chops 🥰
He has a great mentors, his father, and mother. Much success to him.❤️💐💯
What a courageous man. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Just like his dad when I was young. John David Washington is my favorite actor.
Throughly enjoyed the Piano Lesson, all the actors did a phenomenal job!! Def worth going to see if you get the chance.
Good actor. Sounds like Denzel--looks like his lovely mother.
Handsome lad. Good luck!!!
He looks thinner from Tenet & BlackKlansman
I love how he always honors his mother as an creative
How much he sounds like his father in the play is wild.
He seems like a sweetheart.
He sounds just like his dad. People say "Who will be the next Denzel". How about his son?
He has the acting chops so could even surpass his father if given the right roles
My gosh…he sounds just like his father! Wishing John David the best in his career.
I hear his father's voice when he talks. He is a good actor and there is great potential in him.
Tenet was a wonderful film. Nice thriller. I wish more people had seen it, but it came out during the pandemic. Well made. Well acted.
I'm going to check it out. Glad you mentioned it! thanks
I’ve always known Denzel Washington is his father but never realized how much they actually SOUND alike and he’s looking more like his dad now than ever too !!
Samuel Jackson is an impeccable actor in every way, John David owns the screen with his humility
This dude has already proved himself. I really thought after tenet that this is the next leading man in Hollywood. Still do. Great actor
GREAT INTERVIEW!
He has a quiet, gentlemanly quality doesn't he? Sweet guy.
This interview really shows his more softer and humble side. Love that!
Congrats on all your successes and starring alongside Mr. Samuel Jackson🎉
I love him..lord he sounds just like his dad..Even moves like him
This play was amazing, and JD Washington was PHENOMENAL‼️🤩
I love the fact that you have two Morehouse men on the same stage representing the level of talent that this school produces!!
This kid sounds just like his father. Nice
LOVE JOHN DAVID STANDING UP FOR BEING WHO GOD CREATED HIM TO BE, AND GRABBING HOLD OF ALL HIS BLESSINGS ....MUCH LOVE 💕........LORD WATCH
SUCCESS IS MEASURED BY TEACHINGS. N BOY HE HAS SOME GOOD TEACHERS. TO JOHN DAVID. 1
Omg he’s 38?!?? I thought he was younger than that
great interview...he is so humble
If you close your eyes😌 and listen to John David speak…HE SOUNDS LIKE HIS DAD DENZEL!!! Wow!!!!😀👍
His voice is just like his dad
Denzel should get all the awards for Raising a beautiful soul, and of course John David’s mother deserves all the Glory.
All the qualities of a good person. Washington is amazing and awesome God bless
Kinda hard to get away from pops when you sound like him.
Should be the new Black Panther huh?👀
@@the2ndcoming135 That’s what I’ve been saying!!! They should recast him as T’Challa!
He sounds jus like his Pops💯
Wow he sounds just like his father! Such great talent
Such a wholesome interview from a composed and humbled vibe John David Washington exudes. May the LORD guide him on his path. And may he keep his relationship with Jesus Christ strong throughout his journey. Blessings to you, John David Washington. I hope I can see The Piano Lesson.
I love this segment!
His mom and dad did a great job!!!!
Close your eyes when he speaks and you could swear it was his father you're listening to.
Beautiful soul.
The best of luck to Mr. Washington; he is privileged and talented. We pray for your success.
Amazing play!!! He did a great job!
Incredibly talented, Mr. John David Washington!
He has a soft quality if not the power and charisma of his dad's extensive theatrical training (good in Amsterdam but man had a heavy nap in there). Hollywood nepotism never failed anyone.
The same voice too.
He is amazing in this play !
The directing is phenomenal
Go see it -
Great interview. Just saw Amsterdam. And yes, if you close your eyes and listen to his voice, he sounds like his father.
It’s insane how he sound just like his dad!!!
In the looks department... Denzel is the D man at 6"3 great facial symmetry and wonderful hairline great teeth and perfect captiviting smile too.... without even trying even close to 70 .... giving younger men bois a run for their money... over the years and comparing throwback Denzel with today's in movie live pictures He looks GOODT never showy or overbearing about his God giving looks ...Denzel is reserved yet humble ... yes is "am from NY confidence in is swag " Mr Denzel walks that walk GREATNESS AT ITS BEST ..............
Charming John David Washington is a FINE refined man with a pointed 👃 and knows it ... he plays up and enjoys this appeal and charisma ..His cool as a cat walk in TENET is chillin'. Always one to put his best foot forward his mind body soul is RIGHT. He is just the right combination for a global superstar talent
His voice is like hearing Denzel!!
His father’s voice ❤
The way he talk and smiles just like Denzel Wow Genetics
thanks to his parents for gifting the world with an amazing talent
Pretty awesome Actor, He's a chip off the old block , Really is very talented and everything he has done ✔ He's knocked it out of the park
YOUR VOICE IS PRICELESS USE THAT AS A VESSEL IF LUV. N GREAT TALENT. UUUUURRRAAA. TO JOHN. DAVID. 1
Ben Stiller was able to overcome nepotism. Eventually eclipsing his very famous parents. As did Robert Downey Jr, after years of him being a crackhead, and heroin addict, and an unusually light prison sentence.
Their parents weren’t Oscar winners
Samantha B got you there Joey!
Gotta embrace it. Like Tracee Ellis Ross... she leans into being Diana Ross daughter. But to be fair... Tracee Ellis Ross has carved out a wonderful corner of the sky for herself!
He is such a humble handsome young man; my wish for my daughter 🙏🏾🥰
What a beautiful young man!
Great to get to know John David for himself.
Does he know that he sounds just like his dad?
Close your eyes you NEVER know..SAME voice
This was great!!!
He sounds like his father 🥰
He’s a great actor.
Handsome!
Wow, He sounds just like his dad!
Tenet was the coolest spy movie I have ever seen. My goal in life is to become the "Protagonist".
Looks much more handsome in beard! Agree with everyone else, sounds like his dad.
Excellent actors, him and Jonathan Majors
There's no denying his genepool. He looks and sounds just like his dad. But unlike Willow and Jaden Smith, John David actually has talent.
Jaden was very good in The Pursuit of Happyness. And, Willow is forging her own way as a singer. Sometimes, talent and giftings are passed down, too.
Jaden and willow are talented don't do them
Whoa whoa whoa Willow is talented AF! You buggin
@@thetriplethreat3 🤣🤡🧢
This is uncalled for
Omg, he sounds like his dad
Voice sounds just like is dad!
Love this guy
He sounds just like his Dad, Mr.Denzel.
JD was legendary on the football field at Morehouse!
They did a wonderful job with him he's very very respectful very humble very grateful he's just all around great dude it seems like he kind of shy too. And he does sound just like his daddy I know they're very proud of him as they should be 1960s
Loved him in Tenet
*JDW* has *LEARNED* to embrace & *ACCEPT* he can't/won't escape his Father's shadow. *THAT* is why he's so good at this💪🏾🧏🏾♂️🎯 Amen!
#GodSpeed🙌🏽
He has his father's voice. haha
Good for him!!!! 😁😎🤗
I really love him🤎🤎🤎✨
