kandicha Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 This will be interesting. As a fan, she’s done well in supporting roles but she hasn’t been as impressive in her leading roles thus far. This will be a good opportunity for her to prove herself as a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong chance for an Oscar nomination. Are y’all blind? I love Janelle but she looks NOTHING like Josephine Baker. This is terrible casting. Janelle is brown skinned while Josephine was light skinned which is a huge difference especially back in those days as it was one of the reasons she was so liked and accepted by white European audiences. Ruth Negga is apparently playing her in a movie and a much better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came to mention Ruth, the day I discovered her I immediately said “Hello Josephine!” She can easily transform into her with makeup and hair. + she’s a better actress.

Does monae also wanna star as a tree next? they should remain in their lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
