Who makes up the ingredients of today’s entertainment smoothie?
Marvel’s ‘Black Panther’ and VH1’s ‘Basketball Wives LA.’
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.
