Denzel Washington wishes he’d been more active in his faith when he was younger.
The 70-year-old actor - who was baptized and obtained a minister license last year - has enjoyed a long and successful career and the only advice he has to offer his younger self is to have been more in contact with God.
Asked the advice he’d give a younger Denzel, he told Extra: “Pray more.
That’s it. Pray more. That’s what I would tell that younger Denzel Washington. Pray more. Get on your knees more.” The Oscar-winning star is currently promoting his new film Highest 2 Lowest - in which he plays a music mogul who is targeted in a ransom plot - and the movie marks his fifth collaboration with Spike Lee, which is always comfortable.
He said: “I don’t want to say, ‘Just like old times,’ but you know, you’re back in the saddle.
“He leaves me alone. I don’t know what he’s doing. And he put together a great team of actors… Wendell [Pierce] and Jeffrey and Michael Potts and myself, and then the young buck A$AP [Rocky], and just let it rip.”
Denzel was baptized in a special ceremony at the Kelly Temple Church of God in Christ, in New York City’s Harlem neighbourhood just a few days before last Christmas.
