Description
In this WFAA interview, Kid 'N Play (Christopher Reid and Christopher Martin) discuss their creative process behind "Class Act" and their commitment to positive messaging in film.
The duo explains how they had limited input during production due to finishing "House Party 2," but managed to influence the script's rewrite from its original concept for two white characters. They emphasize the film's important themes, including anti-drug messages, safe sex education, and breaking down racial prejudices among students.
They reveal their business philosophy of maintaining hands-on control over their projects and refusing to simply follow Hollywood's typical actor expectations. They also address their role as positive ambassadors for youth, creating PG-13 entertainment that parents and children can watch together while tackling serious social issues.
