Michael B. Jordan on what attracted him to AJournalForJordan: “They were real people that went through obstacles … they weren’t each other’s ideal person when they first met, but they grew to be each other’s soulmate'
There are a number of intimate and heartfelt moments in the Columbia Pictures romantic drama directed by, which tells the true story of the late 1st Sgt. Charles Monroe King and his love, journalist-turned-publisher Dana Canedy . But in one particular love scene, the camera captures Jordan in the buff, with the frame just wide enough to show the actor’s butt.
“We knew the movie that we were making,” the actor concluded. “And we wanted something that would give people what they want, so that’s what we went for.” “We rehearsed probably for like four to five hours a day,” Adams recalled. “Going over the scenes, breaking down the script, just talking about Dana and Charles, creating our own backstories for them for the answers that we didn’t get from the book or from Dana. I think that is what helped us build such amazing chemistry.”
“They were real people that went through obstacles … they weren’t each other’s ideal person when they first met, but they grew to be each other’s soulmate,” Jordan said, explaining what attracted him to this story. “That’s something beautiful and awesome, so to be able to have a hand in telling that story, it’s something that’s special.”
So, the actor reached out to Canedy a couple weeks after getting the role. “I was very nervous; I mean, anxiety through the roof, just because I knew how much weight this project held and that it meant so much more to her,” Adams said, recalling that first meeting. “I just wanted to honor that and I wanted to honor her.”
