I love Halle and all but they couldn't find a dark skinned actress??? And yes, its an issue in Hollywood so it matters. In what world does somebody see Fantasia grown self being sisters w/ Halle?

N

they found a beautiful and talented black woman to play the role

we not finna play the fckn pigment olympics

WE CAN PLAY THEM because its an ongoing issue. I'm not one to make a big deal about certain things but I'm just pointing it out b/c its clearly a star/money grab thing for them. They would never cast a light skin Celie b/c apparently Celie is supposed to be dark and ugly huh??

again

N

if fantasia dark? no. is fantasia ugly? no. abd tasia ain't but a couple damn shades lighter than halle. and neither are light-skinned. yes, REPRESENTATION is an issue in hollywood. but nit-picking which girl is light or dark ENOUGH to play this or that is dumb and counter-productive. and clearly wasn't a concern for that casting of halle OR fantasia. it's the TALENT that mattered. and they both posess undeniable amounts of it. case closed.

Is Fantasia dark-skinned???? Lol I literally have to laugh at stuff like this. Yes hun, yes she is dark skin? Where is Fantasia's career outside of American Idol, The Color Purple and Black Awards show tributes?

Let's not act like part of Celie and Sophia not being desirable doesn't come from them being dark-skinned and/or full figured woman. You think they would have cast Halle Berry to play Celie or even Tamela Mann to play Sophia? NO

Halle is light-skinned. All the dark skin talented actresses who can sing and are lesser known names couldn't have done this role. If that's the case, they coulda casted Chloe to play Miss Celie.

I hope something like happens for Brandy. A big movie musical is right her in her bag. 

I dont want brandy anywhere near this. Whatever she does mext i hope its original material!

A LIE! Original, old, revival...idc I want her in it! Queens is original material, I hope you're enjoying it

All the Queens promo during last nights special.

[b7]

The musical has been going on on Broadway for decades, don't really see what's wrong with putting the musical on film. Same thing happened with Dreamgirls,  and Chicago

im actually here for it. Same production team and the person that directed "Black is King" is directing this so you know it'll be visually stunning as well

Lemme dust off my stan card...

Lemme dust off my stan card...

yes Rome!
I wish her normal music was still up to par

Maybe if you read you would understand hun. I'm not looking for many to understand on this board tho, its like having a discussion or conversation with a bunch of old hags at a 3rd grade education level.

Don't insult my intelligence because you have no facts to back up your claims. You can't even answer the question. You know I'm right, carry on
