Thanks for sitting down with Theo.

I'm gonna ask, like a kind of heavier question in the beginning.

So talk about, like, just each of your characters journeys in terms of, like, the pressures that they're facing not only at school that at home, Caesar, I mean, he's going through a lot.

Definitely.

He was, You know, he had this plan to go off to college with his best friend's entering high school fresh face, and his brother gets released from prison and gets sucked into the gang life.

And, you know, he thinks he has no escape and that that's the only route.

But luckily he has his three best friends to pull him out of it.

You know, see what happens.

I got a room.

Is that person in life who who's constantly thrown obstacles and they don't know how to overcome them?

But I think Ruby deals well with a bunch of things being thrown at him.

Yeah, I think Monte's character is interesting because she's an Afro Latina who also was raised primarily by her father, so she doesn't know her mom, so she's in a way.

She's pressured to find herself without fully knowing herself, if that makes sense, So, um, it's really interesting, and I think people will be able to relate to her by watching this.

I think Jamal is sort of on this road of sort of self discovery.

He kind of is trying to fit in everywhere he can.

He wants to be like his friends, but he also wants to make his father and his mother proud.

But he also wants to sort of do something for himself so that he can feel a part of something.

So I think he sort of just tourney between a bunch of worlds.

Do I try to be the cool and don't try to be the fun?

You try to be the one that saves everyone.

Don't try to be the one that plays football and is the jock Or do I try to just, you know, find out what I actually want?

We captured growing up pretty well.

Yeah, just like the journey.

I'll be like your high school.

You're really just trying to figure out who you are first and then trying to figure out who you want to be on top of that.

You know, you guys go through that journey really, really well.

So tell me.

I guess.

How are each of you similar to your character?

What?

Uh, e h other?

I think you could Yeah.

You see something you like.

You do not see yourself in, Jamal.

And you are?

Jamal said words as brings he brings a light, any less energy?

And the white Jamal is energy to have around.

Has your Jason a different sort of way?

Jason's amazing.

Do it, Jason.

Seriously, Jason's here.

One of the, you know, onset working, getting chunks and chunks of dialogue.

Yes, just doing it.

You know, just just nailing it on set was a circle today.

Compliment line, right?

They're such no love it.

OK, it's the last thing.

What do you guys get out about?

Because we have black girl nerds get out about a lot of different things.

So what's something that you guys get about, like in whatever, whatever you want to be.

I mean, someone told me earlier was fly fishing.

So whatever you have completely under the bus, I'm sorry.

I geek oversee Erica Preziosi.

This trench, I look at this, um, well, I over movies.

Yeah, for sure.

Movies like by myself.

At least twice a month or more over hair products yearly, girls get over good stories.

Good shows, you know, especially the ones on Netflix that I bring you brought up.

That's one of exactly one thing.

The only one watching.

Thank you guys.

So much for checking you Shake your booties for black owners.
