Actor Taye Diggs says Hollywood studios hold African-American films to a separate and unfair standard.
In a recent interview, the actor said he and other actors in the “Best Man” movies are eager to start another sequel. But its fate is tied to how other black-oriented films, including the upcoming “Think Like a Man Too,” perform at the box office.
“We’ve definitely come a long way. But we’ve got a long way to go,” he said. “It’s too bad we can’t do well on our own merit when it comes to the studios. They don’t like to take risks and, unfortunately, we’re still considered a huge risk, even though I don’t think we are.”
