The actress, who earned critical acclaim for “If Beale Street Could Talk” and “The Old Guard” and is now starring in “Coming 2 America” alongside Eddie Murphy, Tracy Morgan and Leslie Jones, shares of her career: “When I had representation meetings I made it clear. ‘Y’all are not just going to send me out for the stuff that’s just for the Black girl.’ I will not accept that. “I’ve been intentional about not being put into a box and about representing Black women and creators in Hollywood.” RELATED: Essence Celebrates ‘Coming 2 America’ With Three Special Covers, Featuring Eddie Murphy, KiKi Layne, Arsenio Hall
