[Applause]

[Applause]
0:35
That's right We get up when that E guy walks in the room We're not messing around Let's
0:42
go I I want to ask I want to ask this question to everybody right off the bat
0:48
This movie had a lot of incredible action sequences Which one was the
0:54
toughest to film viola go ahead Oh no I think I think
0:59
it's a better question for Patricia I know the toughest scene for me was the elevator scene
1:06
but but that would be a better question for Patricia only cuz it was a small space and it involved the climbing up
1:14
the falling down you know the shooting Boy I love
1:20
shooting Well I I heard that I heard that you love that I told you last night
1:26
You told me She likes her weapons She loves shooting She loves guns I think the helicopter was the hardest The
1:33
helicopter has a big helicopter that's supposed to fall and break in pieces and all these things that happened So but
1:39
each scene was absolutely incredible Yeah I forgot about the helicopter
1:44
Producers how about for you because you have to keep the movie on time That's the most important thing
1:50
I mean the conference room was really challenging actually that very first conference room because there were so
1:56
many people in it and just the choreography of who's moving where and
2:01
when and it was tricky It was a tricky scene Yeah Yeah Yeah I mean listen I
2:06
think all of it it was a big team effort So everything we did had to be worked
2:11
out and calculated and rehearsed and rehearsed and rehearsed So all in all I
2:16
mean we pulled it off but it it was a lot of moving parts and uh and we pulled it off We felt really good about the
2:23
action and how propulsive it was I want to ask the actors too What was it for you i say who was what was the toughest
2:28
one for you the helicopter I mean um I
2:34
feel like also too within that um it was the last scene we shot for the entire
2:40
film So it was like obviously that's what you guys see in the film So overall
2:46
it it just was exactly that just like we were all anticipating it from I know I
2:52
was anticipating it from day one of like all right I know I got to do this helicopter scene in like 4 weeks or
2:57
whatever that looked like So I think for me that was definitely the toughest um
3:03
we literally used all the rest of the energy that we had left and pushed through within that scene And especially
3:10
because I told myself you got to you got to chew that sit tight This is metal acting I'm not going to let you out And
3:16
I chewed it Girl I was eating it up I was like okay Okay Yeah
3:25
All right Go ahead I I I have a bone to pick with Patricia because um we know your toughest scene Let's not let's not
3:31
Yeah I'm just saying that the fight that I had with a chair that sent me that sent me to the emergency room in the
3:38
middle of the night for 5 hours didn't even make the cut of the film So I'm just curious Patricia as that because
3:44
that was real pain and real blood and real tears Is there any particular reason we didn't show that in the movie
3:52
yeah And and because there was no space to invite the chair also
3:59
It's tough when the chair wins isn't it oh my god Yes it is Anthony bad man What
4:05
was your Yeah Same question for you Look at Everybody loves the bad guy after the
4:11
movie's over right yeah Yeah I was like waiting for [ย __ย ] to hit me down here
4:16
like uh you're too sexy and charismatic So we
4:22
well you know every uh no I mean the funny thing is about it
4:29
like you know I know the role that the character plays in the movie obviously
4:35
but I haven't played a bad guy in my life Um
4:42
oh come on I mean there's kids here It can't be that bad Um no look it it's but truly
4:49
like all the I think the the I I don't know if there's a key to it but my strategy towards it anyway is just just
4:56
to build a real person from the inside out ground up And then um you know
5:02
there's a whole another film that is like the the Rutled Eddie Rutled origins
5:07
that I've made up uh that you know it's just about presenting options for Patricia and then
5:15
um seeing how that how it fits into the overall story But I get I got a lot of options and um yeah it's really it's
5:22
really you did humanize his character and I have to say a lot of people tell me at some point they're like "Oh shoot
5:29
I think I'm with the villain you know." So there is that testament to you Normally people hate villains and people
5:35
love you So I do have another script I was gonna say I knew he had for this story
5:44
of I think the best scene for Anthony was facing off
5:49
with I really do um they were incredible
5:54
when you see they didn't realize that Anthony would hit her with a
6:00
line back line and then he because they're both amazing actors So that was
6:07
really really to watch Want to ask the guys in the back too What what was your
6:12
toughest scene uh we got left out of a lot of them You were like come on let me get in there Uh yeah my toughest it
6:20
wasn't like a physical and all but um it was probably my the scene when I ran into the conference room then saw my dad
6:26
on the ground Um and that was because that was like my first scene with Viola
6:32
And so that was like a little scary but also I had to like bring right you walk in it's you're like "Oh
6:38
my god is Viola?" Yeah Um uh also I had to be in like a certain emotional state
6:44
so I had to bring that to it So yeah that was a little tough for me Trust me when she hits the red carpet we're all
6:49
like "Oh my god it's Davis." Happens all the time All the time All right Also um
6:56
Ram go ahead that way Um well I would I would I mean I would probably echo Vio
7:01
said that elevator scene you know you're fighting in a phone booth and you're fighting in a phone booth with cameras
7:08
and they got to be in there with you and so it's just tight quarters We did a lot of training together and and that you
7:16
know it's just physically demanding and also you want to be safe and careful and I had a great double that did some of
7:22
the the rolling out of the the beast That's not me Um that wasn't you That was not me Um
7:29
but I got to give props You have a good stunt though and you did great But you know that Yeah that elevator fight scene
7:34
was it came together really nicely I remember when I first saw I was like "Okay that's that's cool."
7:40
My son I wouldn't show up the day I had the fight with the chair That's how I uh ended up in the
7:46
emergency room for 5 hours in South Africa at 3:00 in the
7:53
morning That didn't make the film He absolutely did it all to himself That
7:58
didn't make He stumbled into a chair and and cried like he needed a ambulance Your ghoul did that to me Anthony Oh for
8:06
God's sakes Anthony you're giving us a bad name man Anthony Um on a serious
8:12
though I just want to throw in We had such an amazing you know we talk about the stunts and it's very easy to sit here and we talk about what was hard for
8:18
us but we had a beast of a stunt team Um ground and the boys down there
8:24
really off that amazing amazing job that they did because because all of us
8:29
should have come out bad broken and basically were awesome because they were the same stunt team we worked with uh
8:35
when we did Woman King So we knew these guys were were excellent And I remember
8:40
they had a whole recovery system too didn't they each and every day Is that true yeah They had infrared sauna They
8:47
had you know all these cryotherapy machines and and um I just remember the
8:54
guy who played the I'm sorry I'm forgetting his name but his character's name is Song the big guy who comes out
9:01
of the elevator And when he came on the set I was like "Patricia you want me to
9:06
fight him?" And I remember in between scenes I was like "So
9:13
hi How are you so uh what do you like to do on your free
9:19
time and he says "Well I like the old guy I like musical theater." And
9:28
the sweetest guy The sweetest guy Was there any times where there were bumps
9:33
and bruises for you Viola were there bumps and bruises in his fight no No You were like I wasn't messing
9:39
around Only when she wears the heels That's why she took them off right yeah but I didn't have any bumps and
9:46
bruises I you know I'm pretty tough I am I'm pretty tough but um I I can't
9:52
remember It's like you know this came right after The Woman King and I just remember so many bruises from that Just
9:59
from trying to keep up with Tuso running you know with my old ass you know and
10:05
tripping on stairs But I didn't have much of that in this I I stayed pretty
10:10
safe Yeah You all shot the movie in South Africa How was that is shooting the movie in South Africa and it was a
10:17
start and a stop for a second and then you you got going I'm going to start with the producers cuz that's got to be scary You want to start and stop um yeah
10:24
we had multiple strikes the WGA strike and the SAG strike So it was really really tricky We actually shot the
10:31
elevator scene a lot of that scene before we went you know before the
10:36
strike It was challenging I mean we you know we we um it was stressful for everybody but the truth is we had an
10:43
amazing South African crew and people that wanted to go to work and it's a
10:48
great place to shoot So you know we we chose it because we wanted the location to be international and exciting and
10:54
something different It's also an amazing It's a beautiful place and there's just great crews By the way Marseilles told
11:00
the best story about going to South Africa twice Marseilles how was it going twice and I'll come right back to you Oh
11:08
Okay Yes So the the first time we went obviously it was summer here and that
11:14
means it's winter over there And when I tell you they have the most ter like the
11:20
wind storms we was getting our hair and makeup done We was sh was shaking the the trailer and stuff I was like "What
11:26
is going on?" And this is my first time in South Africa by the way So I'm like "Is this like this all the time?" I'm
11:32
like "Oh my goodness." Um so so when uh when we went the first time obviously
11:38
like there was some of course there was rain and just it was really dramatic outside of course and then we had the
11:46
strike and then we came back and then it was winter here and summer over there So
11:51
I was like all right this is more like it I'm going to be outside There we go Then you got a chance to enjoy South
11:58
Africa Yes And then we got a chance to enjoy it Like we went to the spot Me and Chris went ziplining towards the end
12:05
That was lots of fun So it it was it was it was really exciting And I truly was
12:11
able to see the whole just the whole community and the culture there It is
12:17
just so incredible and I'm very grateful Truly go ahead yours as it were You know
12:23
just to to to uh piggy back on what Andrew said it it was a lot of fun
12:28
because the crews are absolutely professional and we you know we you know
12:33
obviously a stop and start It was always difficult to stop and start but we as a team we you know we surrounded each
12:40
other We knew what we had to do and so we just kind of you know put things together and then came back when we were
12:46
ready to go again But it was those guys are amazing It's a southern hemisphere thing It's a southern hemisphere You do
12:54
the rutage origin stories We'll go to New Zealand where I live
13:00
You already have one I mean you you own Amazon You have the boys you got this I mean I
13:05
guess Yeah Shout out to the boys Oh boy One of the you know for for us also for
13:10
me one of the big challenges was how do we show South Africa and its culture
13:16
even if you know it takes place in one night and you know the the the stuff
13:21
hits the fan very quickly and then it's all action So that was you know very intentional to put the little choir with
13:27
the children singing the marbas you know to have be respectful and show what a
13:33
beautiful country and what a beautiful culture it is And I want to ask you about that too All the different
13:38
cultures that we get to see in this movie That's the beauty of having it in the G20 And it's it feels so smart
13:44
because we get to see people from around the world Douglas I'm going to ask you because we haven't talked to you yet How
13:49
how great was it prime minister that we had so many different cultures from around the world
13:56
We had so many different cultures represented in this movie from around the world movie One of the beautiful
14:02
things about the film is it encompass it is a great chance to encompass all this I mean South Africa itself is you must
14:09
go if you haven't been It's it's physically a beautiful country Of course it's um complex and there's huge
14:16
frustrations and there's great recovery from the abuse of apartheid that happened there all that time ago and
14:22
it's still recovering from that But it is a magnificent place to be and the crew were incredible So that was our
14:28
sort of basis before we even began really wasn't it um yeah and I was just an Englishman abroad and it was lovely
14:36
You were that guy Yeah I mean I just said that our film looks like the world
14:42
and that was something we wanted to accomplish and and obviously the G20 is about the world and I think we did a
14:48
good job of depicting all those countries and the folks that Yeah And it
14:55
gives us the opportunity to do G20 Mexico next time
15:03
By the way by the way how was it being the president
15:08
for pretend It was wonderful
15:14
You know what though i have to say that the challenge of it was
15:21
to forget about the fact that she's a president and she's still a human being She's still a mom She's still someone
15:28
who has to make decisions despite the fact that she's afraid So how much do you show her fear
15:35
when people are coming to the theater and they're like "Well she's a president How does she become a president if she's
15:41
you know in a pile of pee and poop and quivering in the corner cuz she's terrified of being killed?" And so
15:49
there's a part of me that had to play that leader that people elected
15:56
You have to see why this would have been the woman This is a woman that would jump through the plate of glass first
16:03
You know it's you know that's what they say about um uh uh a winner A winner is
16:10
someone who loses but tries one more time So I I I was thinking about that with
16:19
every one of my decisions you know in the movie as an actress that I didn't have the um I didn't have the leeway to
16:28
just play um Danielle Sutton who didn't feel confident as a mom that was afraid
16:34
that she was going to get shot and get her get her behind beat I had to step up
16:40
So how do you play that you know it's sort of an active question It's a balance But overall it was a great
16:48
challenge in how to play someone who has power
16:55
Do you play it you know like they say you know a soldier is not someone who
17:01
fights because they love what is in front of them No because they hate what
17:07
is in front of them They fight because they love what they left behind And that's what I have to play that sort
17:14
of hero and that's that's very very difficult But yeah you know I loved your
17:20
last book but I think there should be a Biola Davis book of quotes I just you know wait on that But I stole all those
17:25
quotes Kevin Steal them Steal them That's okay I stole them all y'all
17:30
I love it Marseilles is it kind of interesting you're sitting here with your movie mom and your TV dad and you
17:36
play a girl who's very far from your character because you've always been the
17:41
nice girl and in this movie you the problem child I mean have I always been the nice girl
17:47
i mean they saw blackish brother I mean it's I feel like you
17:52
know Serena was such a a multi-layered character which I loved Um I think for
18:00
her she was um very techsavvy of course as you guys saw in a rebellion but there
18:07
was reasons behind every single move that she did and showing that first
18:13
daughters can look like anything You know what I mean it doesn't have to be her fitting into this one box because
18:20
society is telling her to And what do you do when your family is one of the
18:26
most powerful you know and your mom is the most powerful person in the world like she doesn't see that You know what I mean she is just like regular any
18:34
other teenage girl that um I know or that I grew up with and has always done
18:41
things because she is fighting for her independence and also fighting to um
18:48
show people that she can use her voice and she also has her own power within that and what I love in the film is she
18:56
has that power and she's constantly trying to gain it and at the same time she doesn't know that it's really coming from her mother like she is just like
19:03
her mom in a sense and and that's what I love and that's why what I adore And
19:08
I've been trying to find a project that was just like that for a long time of just having a mother daughter film that
19:14
was so um so in depth and so real And with this it was literally just that and
19:22
a fighter for our lives And I thought that was really cool So I enjoyed it so so much And I mean it was such a
19:29
familiar face too to be able to work with I mean somebody that was truly the
19:34
first person to ever see my potential in this industry which is Anthony So I mean
19:40
it's honestly the perfect project for me to be a part of and also challenge
19:46
myself within Ramon I want to ask you about being a Secret Service agent Did you have to get
19:52
special training or was that just instinctual like I'm not leaving this woman behind I'm not leaving the
19:57
president behind I mean it was definitely a lot of training Um but it was great you know
20:04
the idea first of all the history that he had with this character with Danielle and Manny and you know military
20:11
background and I felt like that history and finding ways as much as possible to to either showcase it or just show that
20:18
there's a shortorthhand I think it was a very specific Secret Service agent president relationship Maybe not all
20:23
Secret Service agents speak to their president that way but because they had this history and what they'd been through and seeing each other climb up
20:30
the ranks Um and it was great I just kept looking at ways of saying how does
20:36
he continue to just try to do his job which is to protect her and keep her alive and he'll do anything for that And
20:44
so I found a lot of honor and heart in that And I tried to really continue to find those moments um even when they
20:50
went headtohead you know and that last departure scene that we had together was so heavy and hard and beautiful where it
20:57
sort of really really see this relationship and how it culminates at this specific moment Um but yeah we
21:02
trained all we trained We did a lot of gun training a lot of lot of physical you know a little bit of jiu-jitsu a
21:08
little bit of handtohand combat Um and then again you know with the incredible stunt team like we mentioned they got to
21:14
do some of the really awesome stuff They had one guy one day my stunt double So the moment in the elevator scene before
21:20
we go up Manny pops up there like he jumps up like Spider-Man That again is
21:26
not me And Patricia loved my double so much
21:32
He did it during rehearsal that we all came and we're ready to film She goes "Wait wait wait." And she calls my d She
21:37
goes "Do it again Show everyone what you just did and again." And he's like like so limber I'm like "This guy's awesome
21:45
He's making me look great." And you know what guys i discovered that he was not a stunt guy It was his first stunt guy
21:52
stunt job He was a hip-hop dancer A B boy dancer Yeah Those guys are flexible
22:00
Yeah Exactly Nimble Wow Patricia was there a moment where he had to kind of
22:05
bring in the doubles and say "Hey you guys back up and let the doubles do this or let the stunt folks handle things?"
22:11
Look this movie is a lot of close contact So even though these guys are saying that the stunts did it all they
22:17
did a lot of it because it's all face So if you have face you can't have a stunt
22:22
doll So they really did everything And then we had some enhancement from our
22:28
dolls So Ramon did everything except that flying up because that guy had no
22:34
gravity Um Biola did everything except falling down which was the stunt doll So
22:40
they really were No cuz I didn't want people to see my Spanx
22:47
Exactly And you saw my Spanx anyway Well I DFX them [Laughter]
22:56
So the only time you really missed on a stunt double was for Anthony That's it If you had gotten that that day with that chair if you got that stunt double
23:03
everything would have been okay with those blue shoes Can I at least make the director's cut with the fight that I had with the chair that's all I ask going to
23:10
be the director's cut All right I know we are here We're going to take some questions here from
23:15
folks in the theater correct okay Oh we're going to take them from the live stream Okay we're going to take
23:21
them from the live stream We got folks already sending in questions and they slid them to me So let's start with Earl
23:27
Wooten from the United States right here And his question is how do you find the
23:32
heart in a great story when you do recognize it and determine it to be commercially viable
23:40
for me So it was immediate when I read the script I saw that there was a
23:45
teenage daughter and a mother And that's if there's something universal is that
23:50
teen teen girls and moms have a moment in their lives that is very difficult
23:55
I'm going through one myself Me too Me too So I thought you know what what
24:01
makes a really great action movie is that it has heart If it doesn't have something like that I don't care about
24:07
the movie that much And so I I saw the heart in that and made it the spinal
24:12
like the emotional spine of it Then of course we have every other character and has an emotional relationship you know
24:19
all of them Manny and the husband but the spine
24:24
was the the the coming back earning back the love I guess of
24:29
your daughter and the respect both ways Love that Okay Uh Lawrence from the US
24:38
asks "What's one thing you learned about yourself during the filming of this film?" I'm going to start with Christopher you in the back
24:45
Uh one thing I learned about myself is that like like how strong I am and like how
24:52
talented I am because like when I first I feel that
25:00
bro Christopher Yeah
25:06
I don't mean to like be like No He said I'm done Like bro we all learned that
25:14
No but when I like first saw all these like huge names it was like a little scary for me and I was like I don't know
25:19
how I'm going to do this because it it truly was scary But when I got on set
25:24
and like I met them I met everybody and I like started to build a relationship it just all became so easy and like
25:31
showed me that I can do this too because I've watched every single one of them on TV as a kid and it's just like amazing
25:39
to be able to work So I definitely learned that like I'm pretty strong and I'm pretty talented too
25:46
Yes you are belong Chris will belong Anthony what did you learn what's
25:53
one thing you learned during this movie that you want the sequel you want your spin-off correct Yeah Yeah I thought you
26:01
said he said Anthony Anthony He said Anthony I have an H in my name You have a H Yeah I have an H Yes
26:10
Um wait I'm just sorry I'm distracted by Anthony What what else what that's a
26:15
question What is the one thing you learned about yourself in this movie one thing I learned about myself in this movie Um I mean every time I do something I
26:22
seem to learn something about myself I I think um it's it's not
26:28
necessarily seriously there is a whole another script about runage but uh but
26:33
what I realized is is is you know I had to sort of carve out a little story
26:40
through the movie that with Patricia and um Viola that really kind of mirrored
26:47
Viola's character in a lot of ways and uh and in doing that that means is I
26:54
have to find what's my what's the anchor of the character why why is he doing what he's doing and uh and because both
27:01
characters are varants I think they both have significant trauma and and one of
27:06
the things in my in Rut Origins uh what you would see is that he came back lost
27:14
his family and um and the pain you can take that if you
27:20
want um and the pain of that is is what was driving him in into action You know
27:27
who doesn't want to be a hero for the kids was my little mantra and in my head he had sons back home and she got
27:34
everything I wanted and all that So I don't know what that means about learning for myself but you know every
27:40
time you discover a character you learn you you find something different uh when
27:46
you go into the emotional bit Sounds like you've already cast this movie I I hear you I kind of have I figured as
27:53
much This question is for Viola It's from the UK Antonia and she wants to know "What drew you to the script and
27:58
made you want to be a part of this film?" You know what what drew me to it
28:07
is Air Force One Salt Larraftoft Tomb Raider I mean I
28:14
could keep going on and on It It's You know what i always use my daughter as a
28:21
blueprint for this I have a teenager too But I I I tell this story at Nauseium
28:27
when I would make up stories for her at night She loved them Um and whenever I
28:34
started I would start and she would this is when she was still sucking her baba
28:40
She'd take the baba out of her mouth and go "Mama put me in the story Put me in I want to be in the story." And that's how
28:47
I feel I want to be in these stories that I see And you know listen
28:55
and that's that's it And when I read G20 I saw a story I remember um telling the
29:02
Logan brothers because they had written it This was in 2015 And I was like "You want me in this
29:10
this is a Sigourney Weaver role This is an Angelina Jolie role." You know we
29:16
think of all these people who can do You've been trained to think of almost
29:22
removing yourself from the equation And this was one of those stories I said I've always seen myself
29:28
in this story too And so that's what I did It was a badass action movie you
29:35
know And I say And I say thank God for Andrew
29:40
Lazar Yes Yes That's the vision And Andrew was at that
29:48
meeting too Well it's like you see these women that like love their country and
29:53
do all this stuff for service And I love this idea of putting this mama bear into
30:00
this extraordinary circumstance with the most powerful people in the world And it just seemed like this this is a great I
30:07
love Die Hard Like I love Die Hard I love Salt I love all these movies And it's like I want to see someone of
30:14
Viola's age you know literally hasn't been since Liam Mason and Taken that an
30:20
an actor has really fit in the shoes of doing these kind of of action movies So
30:25
outside of the fact that she's a female and she's black she's also close to my age And it's cool to see somebody
30:32
kicking ass and and having this amazing career of this amazing dramas and then
30:37
going to do something that uh clearly she's uh really born to do Mhm Does this
30:42
mean we'll see you in more action movies
30:48
[Applause] you know I always say that and then I
30:53
get to the set and I'm like I'm tired We We There is a sequel in this movie We
31:00
promised Viola she'd be in the Oval Office most of the time
31:06
By the way I want to ask you about the beast real quick Patricia The beast that was driven in there Tell me the story
31:11
behind that Okay so the crazy thing how do you get the beast you can't build the
31:16
beast So it was really challenging for months to try to figure it out and then
31:21
there was this huge discovery which is that Tyler Perry owns a beast In fact he
31:27
owns two beasts and uh and he knew that it was Viola and he lent them to us Well
31:34
rented them to us So we put them in a ship and we shipped them on a ship to
31:40
South Africa and we were waiting for months like it was one of the most stressful stressful things and they
31:45
arrived all like wrapped up in saran wrap or something cuz they're very delicate very delicate and it's a bad
31:52
ride y'all It is really and then you can't destroy the beast but the script
31:58
says the beast is hit by a missile and then how do you do that right So they
32:03
were very delicate They're almost made of like cardboard Uh but they are huge and beautiful And so you know we did
32:10
part you know practical and then we did a little bit of VFX as it actually flies
32:17
We didn't do that Okay So everything's cool with Tyler right he's not he's not mad at y'all He's not like "Where's my
32:23
car?" Right We didn't we didn't we didn't we didn't rap And I love that y'all were really really proud of it too cuz that was my first that was actually
32:29
the first scene that I shot was us driving into the hotel And I probably heard like 501 times like "You know this
32:36
berries right?" They're like "You know this berries." I was like "Oh okay Cool." So shout out to him All right
32:42
Well this one is I guess for everybody but um maybe the producers answer this one It's Gabby in Spain and she asked
32:49
"What is more scary a G20 meeting or a meeting with Hollywood producers Anthony I know you got an
32:56
answer that um I have a I have an answer for that."
33:04
Okay go I know what your answer is
33:09
Patricia H as our producers sit behind us
33:15
You know I'm producer too Yeah And sit next to us
33:21
there There is That's right It's juvie at the end The last thing you see is your logo Yeah Just a reminder
33:29
everybody Actually I'll say this Uh my meeting with the producers uh were were
33:35
were the best Um because Biola uh specifically asked me to be a part of
33:42
this Uh and I remember having a meeting with Patricia Patricia we were having
33:47
lunch and she said "Anthony I've never I've never cast a movie like this before." I was like "What do you mean Patricia?" She said "I've never been
33:53
told by the act the lead actress and producer that this is who you have to hire as my husband." And I and I was
34:00
like "Wow wow That that uh that that meant a lot to me." So you talk about some of the hardest things that you know
34:06
the most difficult things that you you have to do or we have to do Mine was to show up uh and show up in the right way
34:14
because Biola uh specifically asked for me and then she forced me to call her
34:21
EGOT the entire time that we were on set I could never say
34:26
Miss Davis She's like no [ย __ย ] Egot Yes ma'am I'm here because of you
34:33
Egot Um yeah But uh so uh I'm I'm going
34:38
to say it was easy Uh my the most difficult thing I would have to say what
34:43
uh meeting would be with some D20 leaders who all have different uh things and attitudes be but my meeting with
34:50
this producer next to me and the producers behind me was was the best that I've uh I've had in this business
34:56
to this point
35:01
It's true It's true Viola chose her husband and it was Anthony and I'm very very happy that she did I remember my
35:09
first Zoom with my producers when Biola suddenly pops into the Zoom and I see
35:15
her face and I hear her voice and the voice of it's like the voice of God It
35:21
is so profound I was very stressed But you know then you
35:26
