Exclusive interview: Don Cheadle on subverting the biopic and becoming Miles Davis

0

Considering Miles Ahead is far from your archetypal biopic, it remained the key topic of conversation when we sat down with the film’s leading star Don Cheadle, to discuss how he turned the genre on its head with his first directorial outing. He also speaks about the subject’s music, and how the jazz musician’s family encouraged the actor to get involved in this project.

Having discussed Miles Ahead in length, we managed to squeeze in some time at the end of the interview to discuss the actor’s involvement in the MCU – and in particular, that of the forthcoming Captain America: Civil War… Watch the below video to see Cheadle’s thoughts.

Miles Ahead is released on April 22nd.
