I want to play roles that I’m proud of, that I feel a certain integrity about, and I want to continue to be truthful in the work that I do. Laz Alonso Read Quote
I’m a big fan of ‘Star Wars.’ Some of the most iconic characters of ‘Star Wars,’ we didn’t see their faces but to this day you can say Jabba the Hutt or Darth Vader and people know what you mean around the world. Laz Alonso Read Quote
I love HGTV. I love working on my house and have really been bit by the ‘luxury remodeling’ bug. ‘Million Dollar Rooms,’ ‘Million Dollar Listing’… any show that can give me design inspiration, I soak it in and try my hand at it. Home Depot is my second home! Laz Alonso Read Quote
I think the biggest lesson that I take from ‘Avatar’ on any set that I go to is just work ethic. Working with Jim Cameron, you’re used to working very, very long days and you’re very meticulous about details. He’s very, very picky about little details, little character-isms and things.

I’m a martial artist. I’ve boxed all my life. I work out. I studied Hwarangdo, which is a Korean style. Laz Alonso Read Quote

You may have seen me in movies like ‘Fast & Furious’ and ‘Avatar.’ But I wouldn’t have been able to do any of that without hard work and determination. You can accomplish anything if you just stay out of trouble and do the right things. Laz Alonso Read Quote
Growing up in D.C. there are so many different types of educational and professional levels. They call D.C. ‘Chocolate City’ but just because we’re all chocolate doesn’t mean we’re all the same. In D.C., everyone co-exists harmoniously but the lines are still drawn. And people don’t really step over those lines. Laz Alonso Read Quote
My entire life, I’ve always known that I wanted to be a performer, but I didn’t know exactly how, where or when. I never learned or studied the craft, formally. I grew up doing martial arts and playing piano. But, something inside of me always said that I was going to do this, as far back as I can remember. Laz Alonso Read Quote
