Idris Elba's new Movie: THE GOSPEL

My baby's daddy has a new movie coming out. Looks kind of interesting:


http://www.gospelmovie.com/

GOSPEL SUPERSTARS SHINE BRIGHTLY IN UPCOMING CONTEMPORARY SPIRITUAL DRAMA

(Los Angeles, CA - June 2005) Principal photography has wrapped on The Gospel, a contemporary drama about love and redemption set in the world of gospel music and the African-American church. Starring Boris Kodjoe (Showtime's Soul Food, Love and Basketball) and Idris Elba (HBO's The Wire) the film is written and directed by Rob Hardy and produced by Will Packer and Executive Producer Holly Davis-Carter.

Shot entirely on location in Atlanta, The Gospel also stars Nona Gaye (Ali, The Matrix). Tamyra Gray(American Idol, Boston Public), Clifton Powell (Ray, Woman Thou Art Loosed), Omar Gooding (Baby Boy) and Keshia Knight Pulliam (The Cosby Show) co-star, joined by gospel superstars Donnie McClurkin and Hezekiah Walker, who make their feature debuts.


The Gospel features original music by urban gospel music perform/producer, Kirk Franklin and performances by some of the biggest names in the genre, including Yolanda Adams, Martha Munizzi and Delores Winans affectionately known to many as Mom Winans. Gospel music fans can also look for a soundtrack to accompany the film, some time in the fall. "We were able to assemble this amazing cast because our actors and heavyweights in the gospel industry like Kirk Franklin, Donnie McClurkin and Yolanda Adams read the story and said it felt genuine to them _ that it was a drama about faith that they could relate to," says film writer/director Rob Hardy, who likens it to the biblical story of the prodigal son with elements loosely based on his own life.

Fellow producer, Will Packer, a longtime collaborator and friend of Hardy's says the two of them, together with the film's executive producers Holly Davis-Carter and Fred Hammond, shared the desire to bring a dramatic, faith-based film to the screen. 'This is a labor of love for us because we believe in the values espoused in this film," says Packer, a southerner who was raised in a church with predominantly African Americans. "Because no matter what trials and tribulations you go through, with faith you can overcome them if you lean on that higher power," Packer concludes.

And its' that message, says Davis-Carter a veteran Hollywood talent manager turned producer that motivated her to help them get this film made. "We believe there's a need for more stories about morality, redemption, faith, hope and recovery," she says. "Those values are what this film's all about and what people will respond to very deeply."


Set against the backdrop of modern day Atlanta, The Gospel stars Boris Kodjoe as a hot R and B recording artist who's at the top of his career, yet estranged from his family who are southern Christian leaders in his hometown church. When Kodjoe's character, David, learns that his father (Clifton Powell), the Bishop of their church is ill, he returns home. There he is forced to face demons from his past that strike at the very core of his being. He discovers that his childhood rival (Idris Elba) is poised to become his father's successor at the church and has married his cousin (Nona Gaye) as well. While being met with hostility from family members, he also discovers disloyalty within the music empire he is building _ all while struggling to make peace with his family, God and himself _ in The Gospel.

Try some Robitussin. According to Chris Rock's dad, it can cure colds, straighten teeth and fix broken bones.

Feel better.

I know I will be sick. Here in MI, it's been in the high 80's/low 90's since Friday and it's supposed to be in the low 60's/high 50's by tomorrow and lower this weekend. I've been taking vitamin C drops and just drinking lots of water and trying to get as much rest as I can. *sigh*
