Upcoming IR slate

Update on this film. Sydney Sweeney is the producer of this film

She brought on Colman Domingo to direct and actually put herself in the role of Kim Novak. That is GREAT to hear that she is the driving force behind this film and thought of a Black Man to be the Director of this prominent IR Hollywood Romance Story. AND put herself in the role of the female in the IR. It gives Elizabeth Olsen vibes with what she did with Sorry For Your Loss.

 

An all female gang??? You know those chicks have to be TOUGH lol.

 

Curious about this, I researched and discovered that an all-female gang known as the Forty Elephants/Thieves existed in England around the turn of the century.

He's the director of the film. David Johnson will portray Sammy.

 

You're right! That's what I get for halfway reading things.

Just found out about a film called "Ending Things", starring Anthony Mackie & Priyanka Chopra, that Amazon picked-up in 2022:

Good find. Priyanka seemed to be in Mindy Kaling territory with only wanting to represent IW/WM IR relationships on screen.

 

Demi Moore & Colman Domingo will co-star as real-life married couple Betty and Barney Hill, who had the first widely reported Alien Abduction stories. Does Colman Domingo's being Gay affect the interest of this casting for anyone?

Yeah him being gay makes me not interested in this.

 

I think he has had straight relationships onscreen before. As long as he's not all silly about heterosexuality it should work. I doubt there will be sex scenes
about this couple and their legendary story. But their might be some kissing scenes.

Colman's sexuality goes under the radar with him because he presents himself as masculine. He is a
rare gay guy that isn't effeminate.
So has been some of his character portrayals. Even the ones that has been gay.

 

Doesn't bother me. Domingo's an excellent actor.
