Queen Latifah is preparing to hate neither the player nor the game in her next project, Just Wright, a romance in which she'll star opposite Common. Latifah's character is "a sports trainer who finds herself falling in love with a professional basketball player while rehabilitating him from a career-threatening injury."
I'm interested to see Queen Latifah play one half of a lead couple in a romantic movie — more often than not, she plays a sassy supporting character. With the right (or "Wright" . . . oh, man, that's the Friday talking) material, she can be really engaging onscreen. I wonder what the dynamics will be like between Latifah and Common. Do you think they make a good movie couple?

Love Common, love Queen! Excited to see them on screen.
(See, I rhymed that without even TRYING. I leave sucka MCs bawling and CRYING. ha.)
1Is it just me or do they look like siblings in that picture?
2this makes me really happy! i think it's great to see a woman in a starring role who doesn't fit the hollywood stereotype for a romcom lead. i hope the movie's written well, funny, not too predictable, etc and we see more actresses of all sizes and colors in leading roles.
3I love Common, he's hot! Queen is great too. I hope this is a good movie.
4This is movie i will definitely see...I love Queen and Common is so smooth
5This is something to look forward to!
