Sheryl Lee Ralph reflected on her journey as a Black woman in Hollywood during an interview with Oprah Winfrey that was released on Wednesday (January 24th).

The Poor Things actor said he had a dream about the tumor before receiving the diagnosis. "It wasn't like any other dream I'd ever had," he explained. "It was just like, 'You have a brain tumor.'
