Lupita Nyong’o making new movie no one seems to care about
Quote:
Beautiful human sedative and Glamour’s Woman of the Year, Lupita Nyong’o, has a new movie in the works. But judging by how excited everyone is (not very) it’s probably not going to be earning her a second Oscar.
Nyong’o will star in director Mira Nair‘s Queen of Katwe, based on the real life story of Ugandan chess prodigy Phiona Mutesi, according to this forum on awardswatch.
“I read this throw away line in an article about black women and representation in Hollywood,” claims OP, though a Google search turns up nothing.
A Yahoo! video of the actress’ speech at Glamour’s recent Women of the Year ceremony confirms via split-second intro from Nair that the two modern legends of black cinema are indeed working on a new film together.
swift!
