Move over Morris Chestnut! Reports have it another ‘Best Man’ alum is heading to FOX for a new series – Sanaa Lathan!
Details below:
“Fox Broadcasting Co. has officially ordered an event series from Love & Basketball filmmaker Gina Prince-Bythewood and Empire executive producer Brian Grazer…Titled ‘Shots Fired,’ the event series examines the dangerous aftermath of racially charged shootings in a small town (shooting involves an African-American cop killing a white teen in Tennessee).”
Set for a 2016 premiere, the series will see Lathan portray a criminal investigator sent to uncover clues about the case.
I’m so happy for my black peoples, but all of these shows are staring to have these investigative type plots. It’s becoming boring, IMO.
I am so excited that OUR talent is being recognized by Hollywood this goes to show when WE support we get things done. Sanaa is a wonderful actress and I think she’ll be able to carry this show. Now we need to support our deserving artists so they can in turn receive support from their labels.
