00:00You have been able to work a little bit one-on-one with Will Smith.
00:03What advice did he give you about taking this on?
00:05He gave me that advice that I just said.
00:07He was just like, you know, just lean on who you are.
00:09Because, you know, when you think about the original Fresh Prince,
00:12Will wasn't doing anything but being himself up there, right?
00:15It was like he wasn't really trying to be anybody else
00:17because it was like a fictionalized version of him.
00:20So, you know, it wasn't too far off.
00:22And I don't believe that the Will character is too far off from who I am either.
00:26You know, there's so many parallels between my life and Will's life.
00:30So it's definitely been a blessing.
00:33And he definitely told me that at the jump, you know.
00:35And so I'm eternally grateful for that.
