Lazarus The Awakening LA Screening & Red Carpet Premiere.

Speaking with the stars of the hit film Lazarus The Awakening, (Sean Riggs, Courtney Grace, R. Marcus Taylor,), this experience felt bigger than just another premiere, it felt like stepping into a movement.

Chatting with Sean Riggs (creator, producer, actor), we discussed how this film isn't just action, it's resurrection, ownership, and power. A story rooted in a man who's been given a second chance, not just to live, but to fight for something greater than himself.

The film blends raw street justice with superhero mythology and martial arts, but what really stood out to me was the heart. It's about redemption, accountability, and what it means to rise again when the world counts you out.

These are the moments that matter where film, culture, and real conversations discuss IP ownership, character depth and industry disruption.

Red Lotus is a lover boy at heart and a fighter by nature, but he is deeply connected to his identity symbolizing his journey from darkness to greatness.

Red Lotus is one of the most versatile artists out:

Rap, rock, soul, acting, dancing… he does it all!

I sat down with Red Lotus to talk beyond the music.

He discussed questions like:

-What were some of the murky water he had to survive to become who is today?

-How he writes being in “motion” and why movement is essential to creating ideas.

-How his song “Built Different” became a movement

Red Lotus showed up fully, honestly and unapologetically which also aligns with his music which is a movement!

I had a chance to sit down with actor/director/producer, Chris Greene, from guest starring and voice over for the new Hulu series Murdah, and previously working on Queen of the South, and ATLANTA.

Chris opened up and discussed:

-What was that exact moment acting “clicked”?

-What were moments when you almost walked away?

-What was it like being apart of a storytelling ecosystem like ATLANTA?

I enjoyed what advice he tells actors who feel discouraged or lost, and what he teaches them about staying focused on the craft.
