Genius1111 Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Former “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett’s directing debut has finally found a home: BET+ has picked up “B-Boy Blues,” which will debut on the streamer on June 9 in time for Pride Month. As part of the pickup, Mona Scott-Young and her Monami Entertainment has joined the film as a producer and was instrumental in getting the deal done with BET+. “B-Boy Blues” reps the first project for Smollett since being found guilty of making false reports about what he alleged to be a hate crime. He was later sentenced to 30 months of felony probation, including 150 days in jail, and ordered to pay a fine for making false reports to police, following his report that he was the victim of a hate crime in January 2019.
LatinFreak Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 No thanks. Pass. 3 minutes ago, Sesame said: BET has a streaming platform? For real!
Sugar-Rush Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Why are people giving this lying attention seeker a platform? Why isn't he behind bars?
Stepfon Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 The two reviews for this movie on IMDb are actually pretty positive, I might have to check this out.
Power love Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 I thought the only thing he would be able to be casted in is “Bad Boys” on Zeus’s app.
vuelve88 Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 I mean, he does have directing experience in a way. He’s a storyteller too.

The7thStranger Posted May 26, 2022 Posted May 26, 2022 Sorry, but what he did is unforgivable. I hope this is a massive bomb.

Theshigo Washidu Posted May 27, 2022 Posted May 27, 2022 I’ll be watching. We need more Black queer films.
kishi Posted May 28, 2022 Posted May 28, 2022 It's a fun movie. Last month, there was a screening of it and I attended, got to meet Jussie and some of the cast. I think it's worth a look.
