Kerry Washington

To circle back, if I feel like I'm being gaslit or people are keeping information from me... Yeah, right.

You know how people really like to infantilize actors?

They don't want to talk to the talent.

They don't want to tell talent things.

Just in my life, throughout my life, whether it's because of my acting or whatever, if I feel like people aren't being honest with me, it really upsets me.

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe.

By the way, honestly, Will, if you come to see me in something, let's say accidentally, you stumble upon a play that I'm in on Broadway.

You don't know I'm in it.

If you came backstage and you said, I'm not crazy about this one, it would make me feel closer to you than you leaving.

I appreciate the transparency.

You're going to tell me when I suck.

The kiss of death.

Or the like, you guys did that.

That was, you did, wow, you did that.

Well, that's the thing, too, is it's so, you're so vulnerable.

When you're on stage, you're so, there's no edit room.

There's no score to hide the moment that wasn't fully honest.

Like, you're just so vulnerable up there.

So I think that's probably why it was also like a little more raw than usual.
