The wait is finally over!!
Quvenzhané Wallis may have been an unknown when she was casted in the indie film Beasts of the Southern Wild, but her charming and glowing personality along with natural talent have placed her the leading role of the updated adaptation of the hit Broadway musical Annie.
Academy Award® nominee Quvenzhané Wallis (Beasts of the Southern Wild) stars as Annie, a young, happy foster kid who’s also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York in 2014. Originally left by her parents as a baby with the promise that they’d be back for her someday, it’s been a hard knock life ever since with her mean foster mom Miss Hannigan (Cameron Diaz). But everything’s about to change when the hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks (Jamie Foxx) – advised by his brilliant VP, Grace (Rose Byrne) and his shrewd and scheming campaign advisor, Guy (Bobby Cannavale) – makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes her in. Stacks believes he’s her guardian angel, but Annie’s self-assured nature and bright, sun-will-come-out-tomorrow outlook on life just might mean it’s the other way around.
The film stars are favorite lil Academy Award nominee, Quvenzhané Wallis as Annie alongside Jaime Foxx as Benjamin Stacks ( a remixed and up-to-date version Daddy Warbucks) and Cameron Diaz as Miss Hanigan.
Check out the trailer below:
