Lou Diamond Phillips - Honoring Indigenous Talent in “Gangland” | The Daily Show

Tony, Emmy, and Golden Globe-nominated actor Lou Diamond Phillips talks to Josh Johnson about starring in the new film “Gangland.” They discuss what draws him to making westerns and how this film shows an evolution of the neo-western genre by centering Indigenous stories and talent, both in front of and behind the camera. Phillips also shares what still excites him about the creative process as an actor, speaks to his mission as a recently re-elected governor of the Actors Branch of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to seek out and uplift new talent, and encourages young artists not to build their careers on fleeting trends that might be a “foundation of sand.” #DailyShow #LouDiamondPhillips #Western Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshow Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.
