He is usually a very ‘cool’ person but when he was mistaken
for Laurence Fishburne by a KTLA anchor, Samuel L. Jackson had to schooled the entertainment
reporter Sam Rubin: "We don't all look alike!"
"Did you get a lot of reaction from that Super Bowl
commercial?" the TV anchor asked. "What Super Bowl commercial?" asked
Jackson in bewilderment? "You're as crazy as the people on Twitter,"
the 65-year-old actor said. "I'm not Laurence Fishburne. We don't all look
alike. We may be all black and famous, but we all don't look alike. You're
busted." You need to watch the whole interview to really understand how
deep this was.
Although Mr. Jackson was all ‘smile’ during the interview, he was obviously annoyed by the reporter's mishap and reminded him that "There's more than one black guy doing a commercial," he pointed out. "I'm the 'What's in your wallet?' black guy. Morgan Freeman is the other credit card black guy. You only hear his voice though so you probably won't confuse him with Laurence Fishburne."
