Denzel Washington said that he doesn’t consider himself a “Hollywood actor” during his March 23 appearance on “CBS Sunday Morning.”
“What’s the definition of a Hollywood actor?” Washington asked during the interview. “Myself, I’m from Mt. Vernon, so I’m a ‘Mt. Vernon actor.’ I don’t know what ‘Hollywood’ means.”
“Somebody who’s famous on film? A film actor, great success on film?” the New York native continued.
Washington described himself as “a stage actor who does film; it’s not the other way around.”
“I did stage first. I learned how to act on stage, not on film,” he explained. “Movies are a filmmaker’s medium. You shoot it, and then you’re gone and they cut together and add music and do all of that.
