(II of II) Sydney Mae Diaz on Aunt Viv playing his mom and working with Christopher Waltz (mum, relationships)

Update: 2023-05-01

Description

Screen star Sydney Mae Diaz's first love is his mom, Clara. But having worked alongside Christopher Waltz it's clear who his second is... In Part I we talked Sydney's achingly cool mom Clara - so cool she busted him out of school and drove him 2 hours for a gig. In Part II we talk about Sydney's role on The Consultant, being a one-take wonder with his audition tape and having Fresh Prince of Belair's "Aunt Viv" play his mom on screen. Sydney also starred in HBO Gen Z drama Genera+ion about a group of Orange County high school students exploring love, sexuality, friendship, and family while living in a conservative community. He plays J, a thrill-seeking stoner with impeccable wit. Waltz, winning roles and imaginary weddings in this episode of My Mum Made Me.
