According to The Hollywood Reporter, Angela Bassett will star alongside Paula Patton in Jumping the Broom, a wedding-themed ensemble comedy.
Also joining the cast of the Columbia Pictures project are rapper/actor Romeo Miller and Laz Alonso.
"Broom" revolves around the clash of two black families from opposite ends of the socioeconomic spectrum meeting for the first time during a weekend wedding in Martha's Vineyard. Bassett will play Patton's mother, an heiress and a pillar of the Washington elite.
Miller plays Patton's cousin, a senior at Yale. Alonso will play Patton's love interest. Shooting begins soon in Nova Scotia. TV veteran Salim Akil ("Girlfriends") will direct.
It has been a minute since we have seen Ms. Angela on the big screen, and I am excited for her return. Also just recently, Bassett has wrapped-up shooting Green Lantern, playing Dr. Amanda Waller in the comic-book adaptation. In addition to these two upcoming films, she is casting her directorial debut, United States, which is slated to go before cameras in the fall.
