“My last number of films have been so aligned to kind of what I stand for as a man,” he said.

“But there are a whole lot of things that I do as a man. I love kids’ films. How did everyone get into films? Watching kids’ films. I don’t want to restrict myself to the limitations of what I’m perceived as.”

He also previously teased that the film is “heartbreaking.”

“Barney taught us, ‘I love you, you love me. Won’t you say you love me too?’ That’s one of the first songs I remember, and what happens when that isn’t true? I thought that was really heartbreaking. I have no idea why but it feels like that makes sense. It feels like there’s something unexpected that can be poignant but optimistic. Especially at this time now, I think that’s really, really needed,” he said to EW in 2020.

Daniel Kaluuya was recently asked about potentially being the next actor to play James Bond and he explained why he wouldn’t want to take on the iconic role.
