You can’t cover a movie called Déjà Vu and not ask every single actor if they’ve ever experienced déjà vu. Well, you could, but we didn’t. Here’s what they all said:

Interview: Cast Talks Very Own Deja Vu


Denzel Washington: “You know what? I had one today. I'm going to get the mail out of the mailbox, and I'm walking around and I'm out on the street by my front gate, and I've got a feeling somebody's going to drive by, so I just stood out there, and a white truck comes by and it stops, and it backs up, and it's Eddie Murphy. And I just had a feeling, somebody was [coming], I'll just stand here another second. And it wasn't 10 seconds he drove by and gave me the whole scoop on Dreamgirls.”

Paula Patton: “I didn't have a deja vu moment on that movie, but we, of course, had all those deja vu jokes. We'd be like, ‘Did you hear? Did you hear it again?’ And you're like, ‘Okay, we got it.’ There weren't good ones. They were just all corny ones. Someone said it again, and then they said it again. But no, nothing that I can remember that was really witty.”


Jim Caviezel: “I remember the first one I had in my whole life. I was eight years old and I was coming home from school and I remember this vividly because Fridays were my favorite moment after school because it was the beginning of free time and, after cartoons on Saturday morning, I hated that. I remember walking outside, slamming down my foot and saying, ‘Cartoons is over’. That was back in the days when you got up early and never slept in because you wanted your Saturday morning cartoons. That was before VCR and what not. We were out playing this game called snake in the grass. I didn’t have to do my homework that night and we were out playing for hours. I walked up this hill and it hit me and I knew that moment I would never forget. I didn’t know what it was but, later on the phenomenon kept coming up. I was going up the hill and I knew that night we were going to have popcorn and Brady Bunch and Partridge Family back before VCR, another technology, right. Those were the days of Magnavox and Pong. We had that game, but I was walking up the hill thinking I’m going to go home and watch Brady Bunch and all of a sudden it hit and bam, ‘I’ve been here before, I’ve been walking up this hill before.’ Like all this had happened before even though it never had.”

Deja Vu is out in theatres now.
