[@Crazy5exycurvy]

I agree - John sounds so much like his father!

[@Rambunctious216]

Mom has some strong DNA

[@javongogh4457]

No family is perfect but it gives me great joy seen the Washington family. Dad and mom did a greatjob.

[@MsClassyDiva]

I love that the brothers are working together.

[@TheBrucelee1973]

[@m1thomas1]

Omg John David sounds just like his dad.

[@williegrant3054]

YES! He does🎉🎉🎉

[@natashasimmons642]

It's crazy! If you close your eyes, you wouldn't know if it was Denzel or John David!

[@EmpressQueenB]

That is exactly what I did. WOW​@@natashasimmons642

[@Cheeks730]

denzel im sure is proud of his career but the family he has with his wife should be what he's most proud of. what an amazing family

[@lexkanyima2195]

He has a solid journey.

[@roee78]

He often says that in interviews concerning his family and how he would have never accomplished any of what he has without his wife, Paulette, holding the family down and pouring into their children.

[@monicadebose1929]

Those are some sharp intellectual guys. Their parents did a great job, realizing that no one is perfect. God bless this family

[@salomaovieira2729]

❤ I absolutely loved the host’s energy 🎉 wow.

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

John David Washington is the man

[@DruzenjeSplit-nn2um]

And Malcom is such a cutie 😊

[@lebomakatikela7841]

Of course of thier father 😂

[@msshieka943]

So is his brother!

[@Vera_Kelechi]

I must acknowledge the confidence, competence, and professionalism of the interviewer. He has an “It” factor that’s at least on par with the film stars

[@galaxylucia1898]

This was such a fun interview and great to see their personalities shine. 😊

[@theicekingonYT]

John sounds like his pops

[@mickiamajor8110]

The Washington Boys 💜💜

[@rjmacready9828]

Loved JDW in Tenet, hes a great actor

[@saritamoorebansa4485]

I am so happy for Denzel & Paulette. Their kids have NO public Drama/college educated.. not all out craziness ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. The Washington kids are using their nepotism to do well in life. I’m so happy for them!!!!!

[@roee78]

They are indeed amazing adult children of two great parents. Interesting take on the nepotism part. I never viewed nepotism being a part of their journey. It has never been reported that their parents used their positions in the industry to give their children an unfair advantage. John David has often shared how he didn't want or did he use the Washington name as an advantage to get an acting part. I think what we are seeing now is that legacy unfolding before our eyes. It was just my take, but I could be wrong.

[@shan0997]

​@@roee78I absolutely agree with your take on it!

[@justice4896]

Wondering if you feel the same way about ALL the other children in Hollywood, coming from Hollywood parents and how well they have used their nepotism?

[@deescott8312]

They definitely look like brothers

[@loveafrica97]

John David Washington is the love of my life 😂

[@rethabilenxumalo9742]

[@diyanabrooks1902]

Whew, I never paid attention, but these men are fine🥰😍

[@kristopherjones734]

The Washington Brothers- John David and Malcolm

[@roxanne5766]

I haven't heard "calling dibs " since I was a kid! 😊

[@gigireddick3239]

So wonderful to see I cannot wait to see it!! Congrats to John David and Malcolm Washington!!👍🏽

[@erikacater6073]

Watch the movie over 20 years ago and read the book , love the movie with afro Whitward, Charles Dutton, Courtney B Vance and more extraordinary phenomenal old school actors that I love. glad that Denzel’s children picked up on August Wilson’s novel since the father did fences which also the father directed and played in that was also by August Wilson. I hope they bring other novels out from him as plays. Piano lesson was a play originally.

[@DavinaLay]

The twins they are sooo handsome and John David sounds just like their dad 😍

[@roxanne5766]

I think Malcom and Olivia are the twins. 😊

[@ShoeDog-12345]

[@nicoledee4420]

I CANNOT WAIT 🎉!!

[@tomiprincewill7474]

Great interview!!

[@annebell8178]

The whole family is amazing. ♥️

[@bransonbelcher4931]

John David Washington is going to be in the footsteps of his father in the future when Denzel Washington is retiring from acting in the future as well

[@verneesands]

All the kids look like their mom and the sons sound like their dad

[@mamosamodikela5864]

[@erikacater6073]

Oh, I was on the last comment and I forgot the extraordinary actors I was talking about don’t know their names but one play the father on the rock with Charles Dutton and the other one played on different world as Mr. Gaines

[@yudahel8521]

The movie was so good

[@lisa-kl9xr]

John sounds like his dad and he sounds like Chad Boseman in the movie Ma Rainey Black Botton

[@kimberlyjackson8343]

John David Washington is a great actor and very handsome I have a crush on him ever since I 1st saw him in 1 of his movies I would love to marry him and makeout with him ❤😘❤️😘

[@reginafalange2956]

I was today years old when I found out there is two of them. Thought JD only had a sister

[@Rambunctious216]

John David should take over the EZ Rawlings character from Walter Mosley novels.

[@joelevans2886]

The results from the Washington children seem to indicate parenting at its best.

Hopefully Malcolm is a better director than JDW is an actor

[@2luvis2live]

Really nice to see him grow and be amongst other actors finding their way.

[@TiyePetersen1977]

Yeah but they changed his words . Why change his words then it’s not a Wilson play. Did they change his words one your father do that?

[@Rockscissorspaper]

You're right, it's not a Wilson play. It's a film based on a Wilson play.

[@ShareeRedd]

It's called Adlib

[@donnabailey566]

You're making a big deal out of nothing. Most actors will adlib a bit from time to time. If Wilson was alive, he wouldn't have been happy. Playwrights own their plays. But a few words here and there doesn't change the course of a scene. Most Black actors had a problem with the use of the N word in Wilson's plays; he overdid that.

[@heather6457]

This isn’t an adaptation of the play?!? Because that seems to be what the premise of the entire movie is, simply adapting the play into movie where sometimes things will be slightly altered.

[@Blessed-tn1wd]

@@heather6457 Exactly!
