• 5:07
  Speaker 1: And when I look when I look at the resume,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: man and and all these different roles. You know, there's
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: some comedy throwing in there, there's drama, there's uh as,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: there's films. How do you prepare? I was talking to
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: a good friend, like yesterday I saw me. I say,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Clifton Pile and you know, you know kept the pile
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and you know he's another one these guys. Just you know,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you squitch your eyes and you go. Because we was
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: on this we was I was doing a commercial shoot
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: and then he came up, was talking and then somebody said,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: that guy looks Familion. Just keep staring at him, Just
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: keep staring. You're gonna figure out. I mean, it's safe
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: thing with you. I'm should you get that? A lot
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: people go he looks for a million I know you
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: will will wet you together. You don't want that. You
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: don't want that. We know here we here if we
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: go to high school together, right, I just got just
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: got one away. We were in the meetings together, right,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: just I just got down like two days ago. It's
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: always so, you know. I mean, it's all good though, bro,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Just you know they figure out in a minute. I say,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: that's really good because because you have not been pigeonholed
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: for a certain character. You know that you you know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: you play a gangstore, you play a mean how, you
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: play an abusive father, you play a drug dealer. You've
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: done it all, my man. Yeah, what do you mentally
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: prepare for that? Well? I mean I think with with
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: each with each role, I really try to find the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the core of each one of those characters. I never
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I never approached a bad guy or a good guy
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: or a hero from the perspective of having judgment about them,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: because you know, yeah, uh, the person who is is
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the bad guy. From their perspective, it is not bad.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's not a bad guy. You know, they're just everything
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: they do is they feels justified, you know, by some
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: code or by you know, by their own belief system.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: And so I tried, I try to find that belief
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: system for that character and and bring it without judgment um,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: you know. So that's that's that's the basically I prepared,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: you know. And then there's the you know, the nuancewers
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: what you know, what is the character sounded like? What
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: is the body language or what is you know and
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: other things like that, and you know, the thing that
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I want to bring out to everybody when I like
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: even in that character and the recent series I saw
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: him in Netflix, Darren Devil, one of the more popular
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: series on Netflix out of the Marvel family. I knew
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: your character, you know, it was I was engaged your character.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: We just to shut up, you know, because I just
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: knew you just you just would not stop reporting. And
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: even when you know you know this serious and air,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: did you go back and look at it? And you can,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: you can, But I just knew that you emotionally engage
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: me first of all with your passion that That's what
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, is that you take a character is on script.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: We know this's not real, but you engage me and
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: my wife is a big fan of of your talents too.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: And and also we watched Daredevil together, a big fan
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: of that, showing other works that you've done over the years.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: And when we when we watched this and we saw you,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: we was excited because guess what you deserve to be
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: on screen. You deserve to keep working because we know
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: you're gonna give us something unique and you're gonna cause
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: us to be engaged. So when you died, I was like, wow, wow, man,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: he wouldn't share, he wouldn't stop, right, But you get
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: that right, you get that right. That's why you work, right,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: that's where you work. That's beautiful. You know, that's what
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: you want as an actress of somebody to care about you.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: You care about that character. You know, be engaged, being involved,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: you know with that with with with with that character,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: have empathy and have you know, compassion, have whatever it
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: is towards that that character, so that when you when
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: they're when there's a loss, you know you're rooting for them,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you and they're loss. You know, it's like, man, you
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: killed the brother on the phone? Well? Interesting was that
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: was such an iconic character in the Marvel universe, and
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: it's great to be able a person of color, to
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: be able to be able to spin eurok who so
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: iconic in the universe, you know, as the you know,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: the only thing I kept with the glasses. Absolutely, absolutely,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying is that I love it. We're
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: on the phone with Vondi Curtis hall. Uh. It's a
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: new series from Schondel Sanderland Productions is called for the
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: People every Thursday night on ABC. We will be back
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: with more. Okay, just Rashan McDonald. You're listening to money
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: making conversations and he talked to us earlier about we've
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: been laughing back and forth by darn Darryl, how he
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: can create characters that engage you, to make you, you know,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: throw stuff at the TV Skoreen be mad, you know,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and and that that's taking something that's on a piece
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: of paper and then bringing emotion and bringing substance to
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: that character that it has a degree of believability. And
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: so he's doing that right now on The new show
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: for the People is on ABC on Thursday nights uh
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: at ten pm, ninth Central. It's called for the People.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: He plays a judge. Now, how do you play a judge? Sir?
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of quire time. There's a lot of
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: quire time playing the judge. Now, yeah, you know, the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: fortunate thing about about this show is, you know, you
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: see me on the bench, you see me in the court,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: and you know, in my chambers, I get out into
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the world. There was a big uh episode where I
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: go to the home of a young brother who lived
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: in the projects, who I sentenced and he ultimately end
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: up dying in prison because I had to sentence him
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: based because of these mandatory guidelines, federal guidelines. And I
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: do a big speech about you know, the the unjust
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: uh application of those laws, you know, especially how it's
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: disproportionate for you know, persons of color. Um. And so
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: you see me on the bench and you see me
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: out in the world. Uh. So I get, I get
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: a little I get I get to get off the bench.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: And that's what I like because about the road right
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: right right, right right, you know, because what happens is
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: that when you know, when they when they promote these
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: shows and they go why were they were judged? At
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: first of all, going okay, my first thought, this is
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: gonna waste this talent is sitting up there. But you
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: know that when I read that then the then I
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: saw that went okay, okay, they're allowing his character explain
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: because I think there there is something about an African
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: American man being in the position looking at young men,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: young men and knowing that a decision that you make
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: can alter their lives forever. And I think that's really
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: deep and and I'm to sure you take that in
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: consideration when you're reading the script, that this happening every day,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: This happens every absolutely, absolutely absolutely, and you know, one
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: thing is federal guideline, but then you have discretion, and
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you have discretion, and and you know, looking at again
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the disproportionate sentences for persons of color, you know, you
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: really question our judicial system. It is not We're not
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: dealing on an equal playing field. Uh. And so you
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: know where our court, the Southern District of New York,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: of course is is the oldest oldest court in America. Uh.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: But but it's in the headlines now because of the
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Coin case, because of you know, investigations of Trump and
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: what have you. But these big cases of tried in
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: the in the third in the Southern District of New
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: York is now called the Third Good Marshall Courthouse. Marshall
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: was a judge there before going to the Supreme Court
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: and and what have you. And so, um, there's a
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: lot of history there. There's a Pentagon Papers Rosenberg trial.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady deflate Gate. You know, you know,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: you get deep and it gets just kind of you know,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: it was bal but we do. We do a lot
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: of things. And so I'm the chief judge at that
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: of the court. And um, I had the opportunity to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: go and sit with the judge and there now uh
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and do research and they're good marshals h law book,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the dictionary was in uh, Judge Wang's um um um
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: chambers that he left for him. Uh. And and this
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: particularly judge was nominated by Clinton and then re nominated
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: to another court, the Apellic Court, by by Barack Obama.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: And so my character was it was nomin needed by
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: George by m by Clinton. Um. And so uh, you know,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I love playing this this role because you know, he
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: reflects a lot of my own personal beliefs, sensibility. It's
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: interesting that you say that, because when you say Clinton, Uh,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: that's how deep the characters. You know, everybody thinks you
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: just give a character a name or you just give
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: these characters. They call bibles, they create bibles, and they
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: give a history. So it gives an actor a point
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: of view, and it gives him and also enables them
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: to be able to have a sense of death when
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you say the word Clinton. Now, Clinton, everybody knows historically
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: passed laws that has led to the massive incarceration of
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: African American men in this country. And so that's part
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: of his bible, That's part of stuff that he knows.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: That's why he's talking. That's why he saw articulate about
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: the actual location where he's at and says, this is
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: talking to young actors and young people who who look
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: at stories to know that when you see a guy
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: like Mr Hall talking to you about his career, how
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: he's consistent with the role, he has to do homework.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: He has to know when he's sitting up there that
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: if he's been if he's been appointed during the Clinton administration,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: he has seen a lot that he is not liked
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: over the years. And so when you make that big
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: speech moment, it's kind of like an eruption. Finally, I
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: just gotta see what I gotta say, And that's really
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: powerful for your character development. Correct absolutely absolutely, because you
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: sit there and you say, I've I've sat here and
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: watched hundreds, if not thousands of young men and women
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: come before me and and seeing their lives be shattered,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: families broke enough, you know, Uh, because of some laws
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: that are just that I cannot change. I'm merely the
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: person who has to facilitator. That's all facilitatos. You just go, okay,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: he got to strike you out, you know, and so UM,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: those are the things that we look at, and it's
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: important that that bring about awareness so that we can
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: reach out to our representatives and have been change these
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: unjust laws so that we can move forward, so that
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: we can try on somehow to level this incredibly disproportionate
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: plane on the phone is a Bundye Curtis Hall. He's
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: starring and a judge on the new Show for the People. Uh,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Nicholas h It's a Shonda Land Ryan Shonda Land production. Uh.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: The show as Aaron on ABC UM every Thursday timpm
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Eastern and West Coast tim pm and nine pm Central.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Before you go, I wanted to talk about this. A
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: film that you're appearing in this coming up I think
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: it may. It's called Harriet the bio pick on frame
• 18:20
