In a recent GQ interview alongside filmmaker Spike Lee and rapper A$AP Rocky, the “Training Day” star said that he is “tired of movies.”
“I don’t watch movies, man. I really don’t,” Washington told the rapper after he inquired of Washington’s favorite film shots from Lee.
Washington and Rocky, born Rakim Mayers, star in Lee’s new film “Highest 2 Lowest.” The film debuted in select theaters Aug. 15 and will be available to stream on Apple TV+ starting Sept. 5.
“I’m just being honest with you! I don’t watch movies, man! I don’t go to the movies. I don’t watch movies,” Washington continued.
Rocky, 36, then asked the 70-year-old actor if he fell that way because he makes movies.
“Probably. You know, I’m tired of movies,” Washington said.
Washington, who has starred in over 50 films, is a two-time Oscar Award winner and regarded as one of the greatest actors of all-time.
“Highest 2 Lowest” is the actor’s fifth collaboration with Spike Lee since their first, “Mo’ Better Blues” came in 1990. The iconic duo’s other collabs include “Malcolm X” (1992), “He Got Game” (1998) and “Inside Man” (2006).
