One thing [co-star] Dominique Fishback mentioned to me is that your body doesn’t always differentiate the experience from your imagination.
With somebody like Daniel [Kaluuya], who I just respect as a human and an artist, as Fred Hampton, it felt like I was actually poisoning Chairman Fred Hampton.
I realized going forward before I step into something like that again, maybe have a therapist.
So sometimes your body thinks that’s real, everything you’re putting it through.
