We’re all huge Wu-Tang fans here at JoBlo, so it’s been especially exciting to see the group officially announced as part of the 2026 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction class. Wu-Tang Clan has always transcended music, leaving a massive imprint on pop culture—and that influence extends deep into the world of movies as well.
Few members embody that crossover better than RZA, aka Robert Diggs. Over the years, he’s built an impressive film career both in front of and behind the camera. Whether acting alongside heavyweights like Denzel Washington in American Gangster or, more recently, appearing opposite Bob Odenkirk, RZA has proven himself to be a compelling on-screen presence. Of course, film fans also know him for his iconic scores, including his unforgettable work on Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill. But beyond acting and composing, RZA has steadily carved out a reputation as a director with a distinct, uncompromising voice.
His latest effort, One Spoon of Chocolate, leans fully into that sensibility. It’s a bloody, grindhouse-style revenge flick that doesn’t pull its punches, released independently in theaters on May 1st. We recently had the chance to sit down with RZA for a 10-minute Zoom interview, where we discussed everything from the film’s cast and intense fight choreography to how Quentin Tarantino ultimately became involved in the project.
Naturally, we also touched on some of his past collaborations, including his work with the band Dog Eat Dog and his experience acting alongside Denzel Washington in American Gangster. Having seen One Spoon of Chocolate myself, I can say it’s a raw, intense, and highly entertaining ride that firmly establishes Shameik Moore as a rising action star. This is the kind of gritty revenge cinema that sticks with you—and for my money, it’s an easy 8.5 out of 10.
