It`s a trip but it hasn`t crossed over to the point where women are throwing their panties at me.
There`s no white person I know that can say that they haven`t been through what any of these Black characters are going through.
On the set I never know what day of the week it is.
I jump at any chance to go back into theater.
The Wood was about young people and the other one is more of a grown up movie.
It has been refreshing that the last four roles that I`ve done have not been so blatantly sexual with me being put on some imaginary pedestal.
But then all that died down and as far as casting was concerned it didn`t really matter that I had been on Broadway.
I keep all my clothes on in House on Haunted Hill, Mary Jane`s Last Dance, and The Way of the Gun.
Not one role that I`ve played has been written specifically for me.
Like I went out to a predominantly black club last night and nobody said anything and I was wishing somebody would so that someone would dance with me.
I`m always up for going back to the stage.
I would love for film to go back to those days where you had to be able to do everything just to get by.
You just don`t see the same type of all-purpose entertainers nowadays.
The large ensemble cast and the fact that it was being shot in New York, combined with a lot of strong positive images as far as African Americans are concerned, really turned me on to The Best Man.
All my friends from my past would know me as Scott Diggs.
