What a way to jumpstart Women's History Month!! In a recent EurWeb interview A Thousand Words actress Kerry Washington would reveal some interesting information....
"...And I just heard that Regina King is doing Shirley Chisholm, perfect casting, which is another story that has to be told."
Now Regina King has expressed an interest in playing the role (along with Oscar-nominated actress Viola Davis) as well as mentioning some developing projects back when she was filming the 2007 movie This Christmas. This is the type of empowering film that is needed to show the true talents and gifts of Black/African-Americans.
Maybe this is the role to open Hollywood's eyes and take Black actors and actresses more seriously. Tell me your thoughts...what do you think?
