The Writer in Kerry



Kerry Washington


I don't really see myself not being able to act. Even if people don't think I am sexy enough for film at 40, I'll still be acting.


I love writing, you know? About a year ago I got really exhausted from reading bad scripts and I know that I am a writer and that I have stories to tell, so I thought, "Let's do this!" So I'm co-writing a screenplay now with another screenwriter and loving it. Absolutely loving it.


I don't see myself directing for another 15-20 years, just because there's so much that I want to do as an actor and as a producer in so many different mediums.


On filming The Last King of Scotland in Uganda) For an African-American there's a mythical duty to feel you've arrived in the Motherland. I was petrified I wouldn't feel that, which would make me a bad black person. But this role made me engage with Africa on an intimate level.


Rating: 2


Kerry in her black Oscar de la Renta dress is like major fireworks on display - just without the excitement that comes with it. But I do love that very deep neckline.
