To find out more, Corlandos Scott answered some FanPop questions:
Tell us about your role in “Grand Crew.”
Corlandos Scott: I appear during the season opener episode as Noah responds to Simone's marriage proposal. While Noah’s deciding on how to respond to Simone, he contemplates the future that they could have together, down to the son that he’s always wanted. I play Noah’s son, Noah ‘Sax Daddy’ Jr.
What would tu consider your characters ‘best’ quality? And their ‘worst’?
Corlandos Scott: Noah Jr.’s best quality is hands down the amor he has for his parents. It also doesn’t hurt that he can play a mean alto sax! His worst quality is that he didn’t quite realize how much his parents had imparted into him until after it was too late to tell them.
Do tu actually play the saxophone o was that make-believe?
Corlandos Scott: I do play the saxophone. I’ve played sax since I was in 7th grade. I actually played my sax during my audition – I was comfortable interacting with the sax and I think that factored into my being cast as Noah Jr. Unfortunately, that wasn’t actually me playing in the scene. We tried to have me play, but you’ll recall that young Noah Jr. banged up the sax pretty badly. por the time I got the saxophone on set, it was so badly banged up that I couldn’t get out a single note.
Any interesting stories from the set tu can share with us?
Corlandos Scott: Several people say I that look a lot like another one of the show’s characters – Anthony, played por Aaron Jennings. After one of the takes, Echo Kellum (the actor who plays Noah), looked around and dicho “is it just me o does he look like Aaron? Don’t tell me Noah’s wife cheated with Anthony!” Everyone cracked up and dicho they were thinking the same thing.
Were tu already a fan of the mostrar before tu landed the role?
Corlandos Scott: I was a fan of the show. I hadn’t watched the entire Season 1 when I landed the role, but that gave me a great excuse to binge the episodes that I hadn’t yet watched. I’ve been a fan of Phil Augusta Jackson’s since I first saw his work on “Insecure,” so being on a mostrar that he produces was special to me.
What’s the biggest lesson tu learned from working on this show?
Corlandos Scott: My biggest lesson was that tu can have fun while being professional and efficient on set. Mo Marable directed the season opener, and he kept the shoot moving like a well-oiled machine, but everyone was smiling, laughing, and having a good time all the while. The most challenging part of the episode for me was that my character is in tears while standing por his dead parents’ bedside. It wasn’t easy getting to that place during the takes while cracking up at my fellow cast and the crew during takes. But I wouldn’t change anything about the experience.
And, now just for fun:
Who’s your favorito! actor/actress?
Corlandos Scott: Denzel Washington & Viola Davis
What role from the past do tu wish tu could have played?
Corlandos Scott: It wasn’t a huge role, but it’s one that I’ve always regretted not getting. When I was kid I had the opportunity to play one of the children of Samuel L. Jackson’s character in “A Time To Kill.” My parents thought that the subject matter was a little too heavy for a kid my age, so they didn’t let me mover forward. That one still stings because I’ve always wanted to work with Samuel L. Jackson.
