John David Washington says he showed up 30 minutes late to Christopher Nolan's house, barely understood the script the first time he read it........and still walked away with the lead role. Josh Horowitz: "Again, this crazy, amazing honor opportunity. Not many people get to be the protagonist, literally, in a Chris Nolan movie." "Does he deliver a script? Is it a conversation? How does it go down?" David Washington: "Yeah, I was told to be at his house at a certain time, and we're gonna talk about something. That was it." "I was in there like, maybe he's doing research for something else... We talked about movies and we talked about like how I love the movie, like movies. We talked about our love for films and, and just life and sports and stuff like that." "So after the meeting, I was like... I was thirty minutes late to the meeting. I was running up to the gate and like sweating profusely... And Emma greets me at the door, his wife, producing partner, and she's just laughing." "I think she could see how panicked I was... But we end up staying two and two and a half hours, and then after that, I got the call saying, 'Uh, will you be the protagonist?'" "I went crazy. We went, we had like three dinners, like it was like a Super Bowl... I felt like I made the Hall of Fame." On reading the script in Nolan's office: "I'm in Christopher Nolan's office reading a script of his. What is my life? ...I didn't understand that shit. Like, it took about three some plus hours to read it, you know?" "But I really did sincerely understand there's a way into the character... I kinda liked it. I can create, we can create together, and he kinda left that to me. He really trusted me with that. And I really love him for it because he didn't have to." "That's Christopher Nolan. He has his way... But it was quite the opposite. He wanted me to use my instincts."

Gena Rowlands explains the reason why "A Woman Under the Influence" (1974, Cassavetes), which was first written as a play, was made into a movie: "Rowlands: John wrote it as a play. He said, “Hey, I wrote you a play.” And I said, “Great, let’s read it.” I read it and I said, “John, I couldn’t do this every night and twice on Wednesday and Saturday. I wouldn’t be able to last two weeks. I’d die.” It was a very hard play to do every night. And he said, “Don’t worry. Don’t even think about it, you’re right. I hadn’t thought of that.” He said, “Just forget it.” Then in about two weeks he said, “Okay. I solved the problem. I wrote a different play for you.” He said, “So you won’t have to carry all of it every night. I used the same characters but I enlarged different parts of the scenes.” He changed it generally to make it humanly possible. And I said, “Oh, that’s a miracle, let me see it.” And I read it and I said, “Listen, you must know a lot of strong actresses!” [laughs] I said, “I still wouldn’t be able to do it. This is really hard.” She has a nervous breakdown—there’s a lot of things that are hard emotionally to do. So he said, “Okay. I’m going to write it as a picture.” I said, “I think I can get through it once.” [laughs] “But I’m not making any guarantees.” He thought that was funny and then he wrote it thinking like an actor too instead of just a writer. I think he took that into consideration. And it is, of course, much easier to do a film when you’re doing an extremely emotional part than it is doing it onstage over and over especially. Interviewer: Do you consider that to be your most challenging role? Mabel? Rowlands: Well, yes, it was my favorite. I loved doing that. And it was challenging. Interviewer: Since John gave you so much freedom to do what you liked as a character, how would you go about finding them? Was it something that was instinctual for you, from the script? Rowlands: I read the script, you know, 50 times. And I thought about it. And then I did it. [laughs]" (Gena Rowlands' interview with Colleen Kelsey, Interview Magazine, 2016) P.S: Remembering the great American Actress Gena Rowlands on her 96th birthday!

Marshawn Lynch says he asked for Russell Wilson's phone number, but Russ called him from a blocked number “I had a situation. We were playing against Tennessee, and their secondary wasn't good. We were supposed to throw the ball for 500 yards or some shit like that. Russ didn't have the game that he wanted. After the game, I did pretty good, 2 tugs, 150 rushing, another 50 receiving” “I reached out to our player personnel dude and was like, ‘Hey man, let me get Russ' number. He said, Alright, I'll call you back.’ He called me back like, ‘Did you get a call?’ I'm like, ‘No.’ He was like, ‘Russ just said he called you.’ I'm like, ‘No, I got a call from a blocked number.’ He was like, ‘Oh, that's him.’ I don't know if he blocked it or how it worked. I just know I got a call from a blocked number” “So when I call back, I'm just like, ‘Hey bro, I'm calling you as a teammate. I'm telling you straight up, I'm calling you on some real shit.’ I think this was the first time that I actually tried to have a conversation with bro. ‘I know you didn't have the game that you wanted to have. That's what I'm here for. We got to be there for each other. I'm here for you. You here for me’” “His response to me was kind of like, ‘What the fuck...’ So I told him again, ‘No bro, I'm letting you know, I'm here for you. We gonna rock, you know what I mean.’ His response was the same. I mean, we on the same team, going for the same goal, and this was how you chose to respond to me”
