HuffPost
While his quippier remarks made fellow actor Jeffrey Wright crack up, Washington's full explanation was full of earnest introspection.
Veteran actor Denzel Washington has a lot more on his mind than winning another Oscar.
He admitted as much during a “Jake’s Takes” interview with journalist Jake Hamilton released earlier this week. And while Washington’s cheekier quips made his “Highest 2 Lowest” co-star Jeffrey Wright crack up, his full explanation was full of earnest introspection.
“I don’t do it for Oscars,” Washington told Hamilton of his acting.
“I really don’t care about that kind of stuff,” he continued. “I’ve been at this a long time, and there are times when I won and shouldn’t have won, and … didn’t win and should’ve won.”
“Man gives the award, God gives the reward,” he reflected. “I’m not that interested in Oscars.”
