SCREEN: If you could be a part of one band or musical group in history, what would it be?

SHELDON: The Jackson 5. To get to play music with my brothers within the moment of my boyhood wonderment and touch the world with it. Priceless.

SCREEN: What actor would you cast to play you in the studio movie of your life?

SHELDON: I’d cast myself. No one’s lived it like I have. Based on a true story. Coming soon.

SCREEN: Most famous person you’ve ever met?

SHELDON: LeBron James. We worked together. Lebron executive produced my ‘movie within a video game’ for NBA 2K 20 WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHTEST starring Idris Elba and Rosario Dawson.

Editor’s Note: Here’s the epic trailer to Sheldon’s collaboration with LeBron and a star-studded cast…

SCREEN: Best birthday present ever?

SHELDON: As a kid growing up in Baltimore in the late 80’s. A Baskin & Robbins ice cream birthday cake – bar none the best ever!

SCREEN: What’s the best thing you ever ate?

SHELDON: Fat Belly Tuna Sushi at 5:30 am inside the world famous Tokyo Tsukiji Fish Market.

Editor’s Note: Here is an epic walk through that famous street market…

BONUS QUESTIONS!

SCREEN: If you could fix one thing, what would you fix?

SHELDON: Human Suffering.

SCREEN: Weekend getaway. Anywhere. Where to?

SHELDON: Tokyo. It literally feels like you travel to the future. The people, the food, the clothes, the culture, the architecture, the vibe… there’s no place on Earth like Tokyo.

SCREEN: You can only be a fan of one sports team. Which one?

SHELDON: Lakers. I loved Michael Jordan as a kid, but Magic Johnson was my favorite. He made basketball a fast moving ballet of art.
