Hey friends, Kid Millions wrote about my experience preparing Riz Ahmed for his role in Sound of Metal. It's an incredibly thoughtful look into what we did to make it all happen. Many thanks to John and Talkhouse! talkhouse.com/riz-ahmed-gets…

With his buzzy performance in 'Sound of Metal' — which required him to learn sign language and drumming — plus a new wife and a booming company, the soft-spoken Riz Ahmed is having his loudest year yet thr.cm/nnqqzSA

Thanks M88 and we will do incredible things!

Thank you indie #SpiritAwards for the love!! Does this mean we’re a Hollywood Hit? Dedicating this one to Darius’ son Ezra for letting me steal his drum kit and being such a wise magical soul. And to Jeremy Lee Stone for being an inspiration, teacher, friend, and fashion nemesis.
