Rosario Dawson: I want to act with Denzel
Rosario Dawson The beautiful actress and Denzel Washington both appear in the thriller, which tells the tale of an unmanned, half-mile-long freight train filled with dangerous liquids which goes on a city rampage.
Rosario was disappointed that her only scenes with Denzel’s character took place on the telephone, and she was actually talking to a white actor who can imitate Denzel’s voice perfectly.
“It’s all on the phone and it was this guy that sounds just like Denzel that they also used on The Taking Of Pelham 123,” the actress told Total Film magazine.
“He’s this great actor but he’s white, so it always cracked us up because he’d just give it to you Denzel-style. Then he’d walk off and you’d be like, ‘Oh, you’re white. How do you do that?’” she laughed.
Rosario was in another movie with Denzel in 1998 – He Got Game – although she still hasn’t actually shared the screen with him for a long scene. The talented star hopes the next film they make together will allow them to work more closely.
“It’s hysterical because this is the second movie that I’ve done with him and both times we only had one scene together. One day it would be really nice to do a movie where we’re actually on screen at the same time. He wasn’t even in the same city as me,” she lamented.
