As a filmmaker, it's my job to do things that fit my personal integrity. If I don't believe what I'm doing, I'm going to have a hard time getting people to do their job."
Conversations with Boseman led him to believe in continuing his work as director,
For them to do their best job, they have to believe it. In the end, the choices we make have to feel right for me, said Ryan Coogler.
