Award-winning actor Colman Domingo reflected on how he changed his team after “auditioning eight times a week” in a new interview with Bevy Smith on her special series, “Bevelations: It Gets Greater Later,” on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy (Ch. 102).

“I think I had established such a body of work, and I know I did. And I had to trust it myself,” the “Sing Sing” star said. “I’m like, ‘The work is out there. If you want to meet with me to talk about it, I’m the guy.’ This is after putting in 20-something, 25 years.”

Listen to the full episode with Colman starting July 29 at 5pm ET in the car and on the SiriusXM app with a subscription or free trial. Plus, check out clips from the interview below.

Colman also wore cream-colored YSL loafers and discussed his awards season style and how he uses fashion to tell stories.

“People put on clothes or they want to slay and do a moment,” Colman said. “But I was trying to build towards certain arcs of moments, even with the ‘Sing Sing’ rollout. I’ve been very intentional with the way I dress for this.”
