Working with Steve McQueen and the Importance of Confidence in Acting

Working with Steve McQueen on the 'Small Axe' series was a bucket list moment for the actor. McQueen's direction emphasized the importance of giving actors confidence, allowing them to bring their best performances to the screen. The mangrove episode in particular shed light on a part of history that the actor was not previously familiar with, and the experience left a lasting impact. The collaboration with Steve Merchant on 'Fighting with My Family' was also a memorable and enjoyable experience. The actor got to witness the natural charisma of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson firsthand, and being starstruck by him was inevitable.
