Everyone is buzzing with anticipation for Netflix's new film Malcolm & Marie, which is set to air on Feb 5th. While doing a press interview for the upcoming film, lead actress Zendaya discussed the controversy surrounding the 12 year age gap between her and her co-star John David Washington.
In a recent interview, John David Washington spoke with Variety about his new film Malcolm and Marie, and the controversial age gap between him and co-star Zendaya, which has been causing lots of buzz in anticipation for the film's premiere on Feb. 5th via Netflix.
Netflix's newest original movie, "Malcolm and Marie," stars Zendaya and John David Washington in a black-and-white, sexy drama about the pitfalls and perseverance of love. It looks good, but some are already debating whether the film is a believable, "age-appropriate" fit for the 24-year-old actress.
After forming a friendship with John David Washington early in their careers, Omari Hardwick ended up bonding with the whole family.
"I was related to Denzel Washington,” he says. “I saw how people changed when they found out who my father was."
"I got a lot of whoopings back in the day."
