Yolonda Ross Talks The Chi, Directing and Her Worst Audition Ever

Yolonda Ross talks about her time playing Jada Washington on *The Chi*, finding out that Jada’s cancer would return and what it was like filming her final scene on the show. She also talks about why the character’s death didn’t fully hit her until the episode aired and how saying goodbye to Jada felt like losing a friend. Ross also discusses directing an episode of *The Chi*, working with cast members from the other side of the camera, the exhaustion of directing versus acting, her upcoming projects, including a Basquiat film with Kelvin Harrison Jr. and Jeffrey Wright, and why she considers herself a great actress but not always a strong auditioner.
