What’s one role fans would be surprised you auditioned for but didn’t get?  That's a tough one. I don't know, I don't keep track of the stuff I didn't get. I've never been like,"Damn, I can't believe I didn't get that role as Glenn, the janitor, in that movie with Robert Williams. I'm so mad." I don't keep a count of that. You never look at a door that somebody shuts like,"How do I get in that door?" No, God closes the door and you kick another one open. I'm not going to waste my energy on that. I've only got so much storage space in my brain. So, after I do an audition, or after I go in for something, or after I do a project, I immediately erase that experience because I'm looking forward to filling that space with new experiences.

I think it identifies you. I think the man you are to your children is important, because that's the man that's healing the kid that was hurt from the man from your childhood. Additionally, Meta Quest 2 users can view the series’ exclusive immersive VR experience on Meta Quest TV. You get to redo what your parents did and give that to your children. (Apparently there was a clunky attempt in “The Morning Show,” which I haven’t seen. I gave my children all the love that I could possibly give and I'm looking forward to one day when they have kids, for them to do better than I did. “There’s nothing more fun than horror, pranking and scaring friends,” said Wayans. I would say my most important job has been being a father. Maybe 15 percent of people. NOW: Stranger Things star Priah Ferguson plays your daughter in the film.’ Oh Hell No… with Marlon Wayans  is produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment. (She might be insufferable as anyone not played by the wildly charismatic Blanchett. Did you two do anything off screen to build that on screen father-daughter relationship? Frank Masi /© Netflix /Courtesy Everett Collection MW:  We didn't do stuff off set. I think in-between takes it was natural for us to have a chemistry, because when she came into work I was cracking jokes and I was asking her about school. Wayans and Rick Alvarez also serve as executive producers. I asked her who her friends are, and what to stay away from, and I gave her business advice, and answered any questions that she had for me. “You want to dance the masque, you must service the composer,” she says fiercely. I also recommended some movies for her to watch, like White Chicks . David Goldman and Shantal Anderson serve as co-EPs. Although I didn’t witness the incident, lots of my restaurant’s floor staff did. We just built a great rapport and a really great relationship, so it was easy for us to have that dynamic on screen. THEN: You blew audiences away with your performance as Lou on Bel-Air , especially those shocked to see you in a dramatic role. Must Read Stories.” The New Yorker critic Richard Brody, who dissented from the largely rapturous reception “Tár” has received, mentioned this scene while arguing that the film is bitter and reactionary. You had people, including myself, yelling at the screen. Does it motivate you or deter you when you hear fans get surprised by your versatility as an actor? Peacock MW:  It always motivates you to hear positive feedback. I'm a student to what I do to my craft, to writing, to acting, to producing, to stand-up, and to the dramatic arts, I do the work. Rather — stop reading here if you’re avoiding spoilers — Tár is destroyed because of the lives and careers she has ruined. If he goes one step further and apologizes to the 2 servers he insulted, I’ll let him eat for free at Balthazar for the next 10 years. There's so much more for me to show the audience. It's just that I'm too busy creating opportunities. If more opportunities came my way, I would showcase that more, but in the meantime I spend a lot of time creating opportunities. We learn that a former protégée, Krista, with whom Tár had some sort of romantic relationship, killed herself, and see evidence, which Tár tries to hide, that Tár had blackballed her. If I didn't create opportunities, I probably wouldn't work. So, at some point, the tides will shift, and I'll get those opportunities that have been eluding me. I'll get to showcase all that I can do, and let's hope it's before I'm like 90. Tár, then, isn’t a victim, except perhaps of the once-common assumption that profound talent licenses rapacious appetites. NOW: Earlier you mentioned recommending Priah watch White Chicks . I want to know in this day and age with stricter forms of censorship, could a movie like White Chicks Columbia Pictures / ©Columbia Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection MW:  I think they're needed. I don't know what planet we're on, where you think people don't need laughter, and that people need to be censored and canceled. But while the film forces the viewer to identify with Tár, it doesn’t exonerate her. If a joke is gonna get me canceled, thank you for doing me that favor. It's sad that society is in this place where we can't laugh anymore. I ain't listening to this damn generation. They’re glad to see challenges to elite impunity, and uncomfortable about what can seem like mob justice. I ain't listening to these folks: These scared-ass people, these scared executives. Y'all do what you want to do? Great. I'm still gonna tell my jokes the way I tell them. Hopefully its success — many are predicting it will win a best picture Oscar — will encourage others to take on similarly thorny and unsettled issues. And if you want to make some money,  jump on board. And if not, then I'll find a way to do it myself. I know my audience. The Times is committed to publishing. My audience comes to my shows every weekend and they leave feeling great and laughing. One thing about the Wayans, we've always told the worst joke the best way.

NOW: What can you tell us about any upcoming projects? I know you’re currently on your Microphone Fiend comedy tour and filming the upcoming Nike movie. Bravo / NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images MW:  Yeah, that's with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. I'm sworn to secrecy about that one, but it's going to be really good. Ben Affleck is an amazing director. I also have a stand-up special I just shot called God Loves Me . It's really funny. I'm gonna start shopping that around in a few weeks, so we'll see which streaming service that lands on. THEN & NOW: Lastly, any chance we'll see you in Season 2 of Bel-Air .
