00:00Hello, how are you?
00:02Welcome back to London.
00:03Yes, I've been here many, many times.
00:05And we're so happy to have you back too.
00:07I was reading in the production notes that you have such praise for your castmates
00:10and that you learn a lot from each of them.
00:12Can you please, if you can, tell me what qualities you learn from each of them?
00:15Absolutely.
00:16Carla is absolutely passionate and fierce about what she believes and loves
00:21from her family, to her work, to everything.
00:25Zoe is mother nature to me.
00:28She is so peace and so nurturing.
00:32And it's like I look to her and I hope one day I can be like that.
00:39And then I'd say Adriana, oh my gosh.
00:42Because she not only encouraged me to be more vocal about my representation
00:48and my background and how she's so educated on things globally that's happening.
00:53Hands down, for sure.
00:54Each of you show that you are a triple threat in this.
00:56You're singing, you're dancing, you're acting.
00:58And I've read about how you said how challenging this was for you.
01:01Are you inspired now to perhaps try and push yourself further
01:04and continue these challenging kind of projects?
01:06I would like that, yeah.
01:08I would only hope that every movie experience feels like this,
01:12whether it's successful or not.
01:14I really enjoyed making this film and this process as an actor was really beautiful.
