The Cast For Nate Parker's Nat Turner Project Is Set, With A May Shoot Scheduled

MR.CJ

We can now add that Aja Naomi King (“How to Get Away With Murder”), Aunjanue Ellis, Colman Domingo, Dwight Henry, Roger Guenveur Smith, Gabrielle Union and Arnie Hammer have all joined the film's cast. No word yet on what roles each actor will play, but I'm certainly looking forward to finding out!

Parker, as we already know, will play Nat Turner. He'l also direct the film from his own script with shooting now set to begin next month, in Savannah, Ga.

This is all great news! I'm glad that this is actually going to happen... finally. And given what I know about Nate Parker, I feel quite confident that he'll deliver!


A 2016 debut is likely; in fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it premieres at the Sundance Film Festival next year.
