If you get it right, it’s the most grand thing you could ever do. So many people let biopics slip through their fingers, but the opportunity to play Eazy-E could change my life. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
I want people to have learned from me. When you watch movies that we grew up on, they teach you life lessons about friendship, brotherhood, integrity, but it’s still funny and something you can watch as a family. I want to bring that back to our culture in general. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
I’ve done history; I’ve done biopics, I’ve done a little bit of comedy. I just want to keep going and show people that you can’t typecast me, you can’t pigeonhole me. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
I’m from a very violent city. I’m from New Orleans, Louisiana, and it’s good to see me be able to express my art, have a good opportunity for my life, make history and say something, without being violent. Jason Mitchell Read Quote

Straight Outta Compton’ is not a story we didn’t know about or anything like that, but it’s just something that resonated really well… It had no choice but to explode. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
You can’t be Eazy-E and not move a certain way, basically. So, I studied the culture of it, and also, one of my uncles is from L.A., and he’s great. He was like my performance coach. He helped me get the lingo down pat. He helped me get a lot of things down pat because I would talk in that accent for 10 hours a day. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
I already have two movies in the can, low-key, which are ‘Vincent-N-Roxxy’ and ‘Keanu’ with Key and Peele, which is my first comedy, and it’s going to be super dope, definitely funny. They’re so great, and they’ve been such life coaches to me. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
Growing up in New Orleans helped me live a real life. I experienced so many things. Jason Mitchell Read Quote
