Mahershala Ali on his most physical role yet

Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali knows how to say a lot through his characters, even those of few words. He has been rewarded for his soulful performances with two Best Supporting Actor Oscars for his roles in 'Moonlight' (2016) and 'The Green Book' (2018) and has been nominated for Emmys for roles in several series including Ramy and House of Cards. 

His latest role is as the deeply religious hitman Latif in the crime drama 'Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother.' Following the death of his wife, Latif embarks on a journey to protect his children as forces around him threaten his beliefs. Ali talks to Elvis about Latif's difficulty communicating with his family, Latif’s struggle between the violence he commits and his religious beliefs, and why he thinks the story continues beyond the end credits.
