The actress Florence Kasumba and the actor Forest Whitaker have joined the cast of Marvel’s hotly-anticipated movie ‘Black Panther’ before shooting kicks off in early 2017.

Joined by the rising star Daniel Kaluuya, Forest and Florence signed up to star in the release after it picked up Lupita Nyong’o, Michael B. Jordan and its leading man Chadwick Boseman.

Kasumba will reprise the role she portrayed in ‘Captain America: Civil War.’

Following a series of casting mishaps, ‘Basketball Wives Los Angeles’ seems to have found a wining formula with the arrival of the Hip-Hop DJ Duffey.

Married to the basketball agent Iman Shokuohizadeh, the charismatic entertainer has pushed the ailing show’s latest season to a ratings high by way of a storyline she fronts alongside cast-mate Tami Roman.

How high?

1,670,000 viewers.

Last Sunday’s episode was the highest-rated airing of the show’s current season, outperforming September 11th’s episode which picked up 1.51 million viewers.

    Firstly, Duffey is not married, she is engaged to the basketball agent with the longname. Secondly, it’s mainly Tami that people are watching for not Latosha whatsherface. People are literally only watching this season to see those two black women fight each other for no gotdamn reason. That is all. And I bet VH1 will literally only show 5 seconds of it.

      If Tami is why they’re watching why was her franchise cancelled? Miami couldn’t survive without Evelyn and Shaunie “The Powerless EP” ONeal knew it.

      • Anna October 9, 2016

        Well it certainly isn’t Duffey either. She’s been on every episode this season and the ratings have only gone high in the past episode because of the fight between her and Tam. I didn’t keep up with the OG version, but it clearly ran it’s course regardless of who was on the show.

      • Kayla C October 9, 2016

        Miami wasn’t cancelled because of ratings, the ratings were consistent and ALWAYS higher than the LA version, so there’s that argument.
