Algee Smith: What made you want to do Detroit?
Jacob Latimore: Actors should be a part of things that are culturally relevant. This is our way of using our voices and platform to stand on something and not to just shine for no reason.

Algee Smith: What is the most important lesson you’ve learned from director Kathryn Bigelow?
Jacob Latimore: That perfection. She won’t leave set until it’s perfect. She was like “No, we got to redo this.” And we’re just like “What?” (laughs) That’s what I love about her.

Algee Smith: How has Detroit influenced your view of current day issues of police brutality?
Jacob Latimore: It shows that nothing’s really changed. This is something that happened 50 years ago and we have cameras now and we’re still seeing it. Now we’re going back to 1967 where a lot of these things are rooted from and it shows the justice system is very much still the same.
