(August 23, 2010) *Like all strange pairings, there is a purpose
for
Queen Latifah
and Dolly Parton’s hook up.
The two will co-star in an upcoming studio production “Joyful
Noise,” a gospel film to be released by Alcon Entertainment.
While Latifah’s acting career has been on fire lately, with her
recent role in “Just Wright,” she is set to play the part of a
mother of two and new choir directress after the former director
dies. Parton on the other hand will play the choir’s widow who
wants to take the previous role of her dead husband as
directress.
The film will center its story on an unlikely partnership
between these two female characters who are forced to work
together to save a small town gospel choir after budget cuts
threaten to shut them down.
Todd Graff, who previously worked on “Bandslam” is on board to
serve as both helmer and scribe for “Joyful Noise.”
The film is set to release some time in 2012. |
