Mahershala AliGUEST
And so therefore, I think the top of the film, he finds himself essentially mad at God for putting him in this position.

Mahershala AliGUEST
and when i look at the benefits of what i got to do opposed to what i thought i was supposed to do i honestly feel creatively i feel fulfilled by your mother what i think the marvel of it all taught me is that I hadn't really, it was kind of the opposite of why I wanted to get off a house of cards.

Mahershala AliGUEST
Cause I felt like, oh, I wanted to move into this leading man space that I'd been sort of fighting so hard to kind of get to and dreaming up.

Mahershala AliGUEST
At that time I was living in New York and like walking around in Brooklyn and people being like, yo, Remy, Once people knew my character name and could identify me with something, that scared me a bit because I think I really prided myself on at least working to be transformational and working to be different in different things.

Mahershala AliGUEST
I think in some ways I'm probably just now starting to like let certain things go, because I think I've begun to let go of my expectations of the world and the business.

Mahershala AliGUEST
And like even when they start doing that, you realize like, ah, you still don't get it.

Mahershala AliGUEST
And like you're constantly trying to explain yourself to people, or explain your taste, or explain your instincts.

Mahershala AliGUEST
And people are hiring you for your instincts, but then like not respecting your instincts.

Mahershala AliGUEST
So part of me, I feel like there's been this larger letting go as of late, and giving over more so to the things I can control and let go, letting go of the things that I can't control.

What I think the marvel of it all taught me is that I hadn't really, it was kind of the opposite of why I wanted to get off a house of cards.
