00:00:00.510 --> 00:00:03.292
- Do not call him General or King.

2
00:00:03.292 --> 00:00:05.375
They called him Kukulkan,

3
00:00:06.968 --> 00:00:08.940
the feather serpent God.

4
00:00:08.940 --> 00:00:11.550
- What was sort of the most important,

5
00:00:11.550 --> 00:00:12.870
or whether it was important,

6
00:00:12.870 --> 00:00:15.090
or what was sort of the goal for you

7
00:00:15.090 --> 00:00:18.000
in sort of appropriately honoring,

8
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.490
not just Chadwick, but also T'Challa,

9
00:00:20.490 --> 00:00:23.910
and you know, and sort of
really honoring his legacy,

10
00:00:23.910 --> 00:00:25.650
both of his character, and as an actor?

11
00:00:25.650 --> 00:00:26.700
- Yeah, man, I think,

12
00:00:28.513 --> 00:00:32.070
I had faith that if we showed
up and did the work, you know?

13
00:00:33.630 --> 00:00:35.980
And were intentional, and

14
00:00:37.410 --> 00:00:38.830
considerate, and respectful

15
00:00:40.440 --> 00:00:42.570
of each other, of the
cultures that we were

16
00:00:42.570 --> 00:00:43.800
basing our work off of,

17
00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:45.993
and of the audience,

18
00:00:47.310 --> 00:00:48.990
we will honor him.

19
00:00:48.990 --> 00:00:49.830
You know what I'm saying?

20
00:00:49.830 --> 00:00:51.190
I had no doubt about that

21
00:00:52.740 --> 00:00:53.830
because that's how he approached it.

22
00:00:53.830 --> 00:00:55.440
We got a chance to work with him.

23
00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:56.690
You know what I'm saying?

24
00:00:58.080 --> 00:00:59.583
To use like a sports analogy,

25
00:01:01.491 --> 00:01:03.570
we play with Jordan, you
know what I'm saying?

26
00:01:03.570 --> 00:01:05.493
Like full season with him, you know?

27
00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:09.450
Or Kobe Bryant, you know?

28
00:01:09.450 --> 00:01:12.540
We were there, passing him
the ball, talking to him,

29
00:01:12.540 --> 00:01:13.373
you know what I mean?

30
00:01:13.373 --> 00:01:14.700
Him telling us what he thought, you know,

31
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:17.733
like we knew the guy, like as a human,

32
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:21.390
but we knew him really well
as an artist, you know?

33
00:01:21.390 --> 00:01:22.390
Really, really well.

34
00:01:23.670 --> 00:01:25.150
So I had no doubt that

35
00:01:27.720 --> 00:01:29.100
if we came back and agreed

36
00:01:29.100 --> 00:01:32.430
to do this thing in the right way,

37
00:01:32.430 --> 00:01:36.150
do this thing in a way
that he would approve of,

38
00:01:36.150 --> 00:01:38.393
that we would have a
shot of getting it done.
