He admitted that he cannot recall the last time he went through the audition process.
“It’s been about 40 years for that [love]. I haven’t auditioned for a movie in about 40 years. I won an Academy Award in 1989. I’m sure no one has asked me to audition since then,” he said.
When asked if he misses the audition process, Denzel Washington responded with a definitive “No.”
