Danielle Brooks knows Sofia fromThe Color Purplewell.
Well, the core of who they are is the same, she said.
The differences come from the environment and what Im given.
Once you open, you cant change things.
With the film, I was really able to spread my wings, Brooks said.
And thats what really made this version of Sofia sing in a different way.

I had to remove all of that and really let Sofia do her thing and live within me.
And it worked out, thank God.
