Gabriel Chavarria Talks 'War For Planet of the Apes,' Best Movies of 2017 So Far
On today’s episode 40, all our guests are once again diverse and we pride ourselves in that. We talk to Wilson Morales, Editor-in-Chief of Blackfilm.com to discuss the Best Movies of 2017... So Far. Did Wonder Woman make our cut?
Then, we talk War For Planet of the Apes. I sat down with American-Honduran actor Gabriel Chavarria, who plays the Preacher in the film, to talk his emotional reaction of being cast in the film, the time he quit acting, what it means to be an American Latino and where he gets his confidence when dealing with rejection.
And finally, it’s been a crazy week in sports. We had MLB’s HomeRun Derby and All-Star Game, the ESPY’S, The Gold Cup and the rumors about the Knicks Puerto Rican star, Carmelo Anthony, being traded to the Houston Rockets. ESPN’s Cristian Moreno recaps everything you need to know.
EPISODE SUMMARY
Takeaways from HBO's 'The Defiant Ones' Documentary :47
1. Absurd work ethic: Bruce Springsteen and Bono took Jimmy Iovine to his physical limits and that’s where he learned that to be truly successful, you have to live your job or project. You can’t half-ass it.
2. Believing in your work: Dre experienced unanimous rejection for his album The Chronic, but he knew he had something special and after knocking on dozens of doors, he met Jimmy Iovine and the rest is music history.
3. Gut Feeling: Dre and Jimmy always had taste and a nose for talent. They listened to their gut and it brought them to the promise land.
4. Pure luck: This is what you heard Dre say at the beginning of the podcast. Without luck, you will see results with the aforementioned factors, but with luck, you’ll go supernova.
