Here's a suggested cast list:
The "Good Times" are rolling again, thanks to a new deal that will
bring the '70s sitcom to the big screen.
Variety reports that after unsuccessful attempts by Wesley Snipes, Babyface and Magic Johnson, a company called Creative Production Group finaly secured the rights for the show, which follows a family living in the Chicago projects. No actors are attached to star just yet, but RedEye has a few suggestions:

Thelma Evans-Anderson Meagan Good
