'Green Book': Brian Stepanek shares his thoughts on playing 'horrible, evil' Graham Kimbell and loving it

Despite wanting to be a part of 'Green Book' badly, Brian could not go for a callback, because he was 'in bed really, really sick.'

On Friday, November 16, one of the most important films of the year, ‘Green Book’ will be released in the US. Starring Mahershala Ali and Viddo Mortensen, this Odd Couple-esque story depicts the organic friendship that develops between famed black pianist Don Shirley (Ali) and his white chauffer Frank "Tony Lip" Vallelonga (Mortensen) in the deep South during the 1960s. The heartwarming tale of friendship, however, would be incomplete without a “horrible and evil” personification of the blatant racism prevalent during the era of Jim Crow laws.
