Jeffery Wright is one of the best actors I've seen in recent years got introduced to him in Westworld but I recognized him from his portrayal Basquiat and love him on boardwalk empire. He's very inspirational and one of the DC's best artists working in the industry.
Love his answer about not knowing if he did keep sane, think we should all be that honest

@3:40 "The virus was the enemy." Sigh. Sadly, though, many considered the wearing of mask as the enemy. First it was about doubting the efficacy as far as protection is concerned, then it was about "freedom" (so-called body autonomy). It's like a soldier complaining about having to wear a bulletproof vest and a helmet because it's bulky, heavy, and compromises his mobility.
boardwalk empire was my first time seeing jeffrey wright he was amazing in that show
I want to see Jeffrey as Uatu in Multiverse of Madness.

If only the virus was the ONLY enemy. Sadly, some people made it their mission to make (dis)information about it at least as dangerous as the bug itself.

Jeffrey wright is the epitome of excellent acting , next to billy bob thorton, Denzel Washington and Robert Deniro….he is the best . I wish he would do a remake of Columbia the 1970s detective ..trust me people will love it
Fun fact he was in the movie shaft with Christian bale and also the guy who play commissioner Gordon in the first four Batman movies was also in shaft as well
