Q. Hello, tell everyone who Darius is?

A. Who am I? Well, my friends call me Diggy. I’d say I’m a fun-loving guy. I enjoy the ability to make people smile and laugh. I’m a little bit of a home body when not working or with my friends. I love my family and my 2 dogs.

Q. What made you want to be an actor?

A. Simply because of the enjoyment I get from entertaining people. Being able to make people happy by doing what makes me happy is something that’s very special to me. I’ve loved it since I was very little. As a little kid I’d try to dance and entertain people wherever I was. My family says I was born for this.

Q. Who is your Role Model?

A. My biggest inspiration would have to be Tyler, the Creator. Our world lacks an ability to accept pure authenticity. He refuses to be anything but himself! I admire that and the businesses he’s created being unique. I also respect his bond to his family and friends.

Q. Who is your favorite Actor/ Actress?

A. One of my favorites actors is Donald Glover, as well as being one of my biggest inspirations, like Tyler. Donald is such a creative creature, there’s nothing he can’t do. When it comes to acting, it brings me so much joy to watch him perform. His depth is outstanding, and he is ever evolving! I learn so much from him. That’s why he is one of my favorites.

Q. What is your favorite Movie or T.V. show?

A. My favorite Movie has to be Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, it’s funny and I like the unique storyline.

My favorite T.V. show would have to be Brooklyn 99.... needs no explanation, so funny.

Q. What do you do in your spare time?

A. Something, I enjoy doing whenever I have nothing on my agenda is spending time with the people close to me. My friends are really important to me, so I try to hang out with them whenever I’m able to.

Q. What are some of your other hobbies?

A. I love music, so recently I’ve been learning how to produce as well as writing music. I’ve been learning how to skateboard as well, it’s fun to see myself progressively getting better and better. Skating is also a great way to deal with anxiety and stress, giving me another reason to appreciate it. Lastly, I love to cook. I

love making food. I must say I’m pretty ok at it and the best part is getting to eat my creation.

Q. What is one of your greatest accomplishments?

A. I’d say one of my greatest accomplishments would be me getting my High School Diploma 2yrs early. I know it made my family proud, so I felt really good about being able to.

Q. If you can meet any celebrity who would it be?

A. Definitely Tyler, The Creator. I would greatly love to just have a conversation with that man. It could be about anything; I just want to know what it would be like to talk to him. See his brain work firsthand. Possibly create something with him!

Q. What projects are you working on and where can everyone follow you?

A. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, my work has taken a temporary pause. I was in the middle of finishing the last season of Total Eclipse when quarantine started. You can watch the previous episodes and get caught up for the last season on Brat‘s YouTube channel. I will be filming some quarantine content for that same network this week. The quarantine although necessary is something I dislike very much; I would love to be auditioning like normal and filming still. I can’t wait to start working asap.
