Here's mine:

My Great Grandpa Ben was a Moonshiner. My Brother was a Portable Toilet Cleaner. And I’m a Entertainment Specialist, and I am so grateful. Thank you to my team at Chik-Fil-A, Viola, who has been my manager for 47 years; everyone at Miramax, for believing in this project. Joe, James, Jane, Jill, Pat, and everyone at Lush Green Grasses Features. Thank you to Alexander Skarsgard, my amazing co-star, you inspire me every Minute. This movie was based on Thurgood Marshall’s life, and I want to honor that by being the best Actor I can. Thank you so much.


Yes, the two whitest people known on earth (myself and Alexander Skarsgard) made a movie about the first African American Supreme Court Justice in the United States . But Marshall is an inspiration to me and always wanted to bring his story to the big screen.

the amazing cast, Gilbert Gottfried, Lindsey Lohan, our wonderful crew in Mynamar, my lover Rihanna, my mother, Mergatroid, and my Crazy Uncle Ray. Thanks to Phil Upchuck for a Restrained script that set the tone for everything. Making movies is like twerking bananas, and this was no exception, but I am so grateful to everyone involved. Yippeekayee, motherfuckers!

shot in Mynamar. Casting Lindsey as a philosophical nun went against the grain. Gilbert & I have wanted to work together for some time. When I saw the script called for a handsome introverted missionary, I knew he was perfect. That it broke box office records just tells me to keep making movies.

I saw your critically lauded portrayal of Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. Denzell and Jamie Fox, who I saw it with, said you were born to play him. Your rousing summation during the 'Separate is inherently unequal!' sequence leaves the audience breathless.

that I didn't notice. I thought it was actually Thurgood Marshall's wife.
