Transcript

00:00This is the first year that the Gilded Age is nominated for a SAG Award.

00:02How does it feel to receive this recognition from your fellow actors?

00:05Oh my gosh, it's everything.

00:06I mean, I think, you know, any awards recognition is amazing and cool,

00:10but when it's from your peers, it's really special, and it means more, I think, in a way.

00:16And I'm so proud to be a part of this company, you know.

00:18Have you seen any scripts for Season 3 yet? Any details on Season 3?

00:23No, I have not seen any scripts.

00:25I'm just excited for the costume sort of designs that will come up,

00:31because every year, you know, it's just more and more exciting to see what they're going to put on you

00:36and how tight the corsets are going to be.

00:39Since we are at the SAG Awards, is there a fellow SAG nominee that you would love to work with in the future

00:43that you haven't gotten the chance to work with yet?

00:46Oh my goodness, there's so many. Let me think.

00:49I mean, well, anybody from American fiction.

00:55Oh my gosh.

00:56I mean, I've known Jeffrey Wright for years, and even though we were both in Ruston,

00:59we didn't have a scene together, so I would love to work with Jeffrey.

01:02And if I can work with Coleman Domingo again, that would be thrilling.

01:06Such an exciting year for both of them,

01:08and exciting to see the trajectory they're on with their films.

01:11Yeah, yeah, I'm so proud of them.

01:13And I'm really excited for Coleman, especially.

01:16I mean, he's been in this business for such a long time

01:19and been doing such stellar work for such a long time,

01:21so it's so lovely to see him finally be recognized.

01:24Speaking of having lots of experience in this business,

01:27for you, what role got you your SAG card? Do you know?

01:31You know, I responded to something.

01:33I responded to this question with another interview,

01:35and I said it was Mr. Sterling that I did with Josh Brolin that Lawrence O'Donnell wrote,

01:39but I think that's wrong.

01:41I think it was having our say that I did with Ruby Dee and Diane Carroll.

01:47I think that was my SAG card.

01:49I think.

01:50I'm old.

01:51One of the two.

01:52I'm pretty sure that was it.

01:54Yeah.

01:55And since tonight is all about actors,

01:57who in your life championed your love of acting early on

02:00and made you believe that this dream was possible?

02:03Honestly, my family.

02:04They saw that this was something that I, when I did it as a kid,

02:07they saw that I flourished, they saw that I was less hyperactive,

02:11they saw that I was fulfilled as a kid,

02:13they saw that my energy was channeled,

02:14and so they're the ones that said keep at it.

02:17Just get a degree, but keep at it.
