Hector Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 Incredible casting. Strong chance for an Oscar nomination.
MadonnasBoyfriend Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 The woman on the right looks like a cross between Lady gaga and Liza minelli. Janelle has made 2 films I loved them in so I shall watch this too

kandicha Posted May 4, 2022 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.
JoeAg Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 it's about time! Janelle has always exuded that brilliant Josephine energy imo now announce new music legend

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.

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.
