00:00What does this evening mean to you?
00:02Well, this is my first film, so it means everything.
00:04It's a big one. Congratulations.
00:06Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is a big one for me. Are we on?
00:08Yes, we are definitely on.
00:09Oh, cool. So how is this for you tonight?
00:11No, no, no. This is all about you.
00:15The first day you walked on set and you saw Angela Bassett, Forrest Whitaker, Chadwick Boseman,
00:20and you're telling this powerful story, a culturally rich story. How did you feel?
00:24Well, it was hard to kind of feel anything because it was all so quick.
00:29So I didn't really realize what it was until one day we were doing some screen tests.
00:33And I had to stand in costume next to Chad and Michael and Daniel Kaluuya,
00:39who was nominated for an Oscar, Wakanda.
00:44And that's when it all clicked. And I said, wow, I'm in this. And this is huge.
00:48And then I saw all these other figures that sometimes are pitched to you as competition
00:54and you see the space for us all and this is exciting.
00:57And we all can be amazing and be excellent. And I was so happy.
01:01and I was so happy.
01:05for you and my music and I was so happy.
