Laurence Fishburne Interview on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight

At 14, Laurence Fishburne lied about his age to land a part in 'Apocalypse Now.' Later, he starred in everything from 'Boyz n the Hood' and, of course, 'The Matrix,' to 'Hannibal' and 'The Colony,' a sci-fi thriller set in the next ice age. He talks to George about all that and more in this 2013 interview.

[@DerekBlais]

Awesome interview. What a consistently great show.

[@TheGil1946]

yes'good actor ,great interview++

[@aljackson5086]

Dude wears his PJs to the interview . Badass.

[@daoyang223]

Not even kidding. My ass wore PJ's to school everyday until it got banned. Everyone got mad at me, even though they never wore PJ's to school. It's like a vegan being mad at someone for being the cause of the ban on meat (or milk).

[@rampageclover9788]

Did Fishburne just rise from bed?

[@mahmudmoral]

That makes so much sense, what he said about Keanu and Toronto.

[@myinnapeaceministries7545]

Watching him as a kid in Cornbread, Earl & Me right now! Amazing actor!

[@ZULUPRIEST]

Made me cry in APOCALYPSE!!! THAT WAS THAT BROWN WATER NAVY!!!

[@3stardiamond]

Damn! And i missed this?? I'd definitely pay more attention when the newsletter comes out next time!

[@MoebiusPan]

Great interview for a great actor.

[@torguy5763]

Ladies and gentlemen, Samuel L Jackson!!

[@hayden3511]

Idk why they don't discuss more about his role as Othello. It wasn't that bad of a performance.

[@cake58879]

He taught Keke Palmer words.

[@daoyang223]

Kevin Zegers have been in films with Sarah Polley and Ving Rhames. That's good nuff for me.

[@julienjohnson9670]

Hell of a last name that guy has ...Jesus. Can i get more vowels please? (ps: I don't mean "Fishburne" for you smart-asses out there)

[@watchyourprofanity8708]

Im sorry, but ive never seen anyone look remotely like samuel jackson.

[@Rock-n-Rolla369]

What sunglasses was he wearing?

[@Orca322]

What a legend.

[@Regannic]

Loved him in Pulp Fiction!

[@kalymnosalani]

Regannic That's Samuel Jackson... This guy starred on "Matxix" and "The Green Mile"

[@Regannic]

***** I know haha, part of the joke that Laurence told in the interview...

[@kalymnosalani]

Ι know too ;) That thing is going on for years. Samuel says "they stop me and say : Man you were great on Matrix"

[@jesushateswood]

Why is the host such a close talker?
