I was fine with Jennifer Hudson winning the Best Supporting Actress Oscar — until I saw Adriana Barraza in Babel. I'm willing, however, to give the former "Idol" singer more chances to prove herself as an actress.
Today, Variety is reporting that Hudson might star in Winged Creatures, playing the daughter of fellow 2007 Oscar winner Forest Whitaker. Apparently, Hudson is busy recording her debut album (set for a Fall release on Arista) but still wants to join the cast, which sounds totally awesome. According to the Variety story:
The Rowan Woods-directed adaptation of the Roy Freirich novel about survivors of a brutal murder in a restaurant also stars Kate Beckinsale, Guy Pearce, Dakota Fanning, Jackie Earle Haley, Embeth Davidtz, Jeanne Tripplehorn, and Josh Hutcherson.
I'm not familiar with Aussie director Woods, but I love a good ensemble movie, and this plot, following the witnesses as they cope with the crime and its aftermath, sounds intriguing.

Wow, that is a good cast.
