'Sparkle' fell into my lap. I had heard a little bit about it that it was being redone in early 2011.

I read it I fell in love with the script and I went in to audition.

How serious can a movie about time-traveling robots be? You want it to be cool and fun.

When I was kid I remember playing 'Vogue' by Madonna over and over and over again. And ah you know something about the beat was really cool and Madonna visually was on TV all the time and I thought she was just so beautiful.
