When Hollywood actor Gregg Daniel was offered an audition for a new movie in Los Angeles, he nearly didn't show up – the pandemic was well under way, and "no one was shooting".
"I almost hesitated even going to the audition," said Daniel. "I'm African-American, I'm over 50 and disproportionately black people were dying of Covid-19... but the script was so good, and I'm an actor at heart."
