ICYMI: ErnieHudson (QuantumLeap) talks to Bleeding Cool about the BobbyFarrelly sports comedy Champions for FocusFeatures, inclusivity, WoodyHarrelson KaitlinOlson & more. Interview
for Focus Features that follows Marcus , a former minor-league basketball coach who, after a series of missteps, is ordered by the court to manage a team of players with intellectual disabilities. He soon realizes that despite his doubts, together, this team can go further than they ever imagined. Hudson spoke to Bleeding Cool about the representation of people with disabilities, Harrelson, co-stars, and more.
Bobby Farrelly has a track record of being more inclusive in raising awareness of people with disabilities in his projects. What was it like kind of working with him on set? Bobby was great. I was thankful he thought of me. Woody [Harrelson] and I had worked on the film 25 or so years ago called 'The Cowboy Way' , so I've known Woody for some time. I'm a fan. I consider him a friend, he's talented and has an amazing spirit. Bobby, I didn't know, but I knew of his work.
It's always a combination of both. I didn't spend time imparting any. I don't think anybody was asking for that. If you are going to impart anything, it's through your example and whenever I take on a project, whenever I go to work, you want to come with your best and be open to learning. You always learn if you're open to learning because everybody has their process, but you hope someone will pick up a few pointers from you.
Woody involved everyone and that was beautiful. You have to show up ready to work. You can't kind of figure it out on the set. You're always reaching for your best but you're always learning and the learning comes from the most unexpected places. In this film, if you can get to the heart of being in the moment and being genuine and sincere, which this cast was, you got to learn something.
