I’m so excited that I’ve had the chance to work on 2 great films this year with major actors in “Bailey & Darla” it was a blast. I also worked on “Flip Turn” both movies will be out in 2020. Hint, I have a small speaking role in one of the movies. But the other one I’m setting behind major actors in the film.
More To Come This Year!!
Bailey & Darla Cast includes:Brittany Snow, Jordana Brewster, Vivica A. Fox, Sam Richardson and more..
And on the “Flip Turn” movie This will be my very 1st On-Screen Credit ( My name will be listed in the end credits of the movie) I’m so happy..
The film will star a slew of celebrities, including Jennifer Hudson, Samuel L. Jackson, Nick Cannon, Angela Bassett, Wesley Snipes, LaLa Anthony and Survivor’s Remorse” starTeyonah Paris will also star in the film.
Spike Lee’s new flick will be an update on Aristophanes’ anti-war comedy “Lysistrata.” The comedy is about the women of Athens who stop having sex with their husbands in an effort to bring the devastating Peloponnesian War to an end. Well, Lee will tell the story with a Chi-town twist.
Set in the modern day south Chicago Urban war zone nicknamed Chi-Raq (as in “Iraq”) the story sees a group of women organize against the on-going violence after the murder of a child by a stray bullet, by withholding sexual access to the point that even strippers refuse to work. What follows challenges the nature of sex, race and violence in America and the world.

A drama centered around the relationship between journalist Michael Finkel and Christian Longo, an FBI Most Wanted List murderer who for years lived outside the U.S. under Finkel’s name.
BY RICHARD ROEPER | SUN-TIMES MOVIE COLUMNIST
The lowest form of human being on the planet is the man or woman who takes another life — and yet some killers become despicable rock stars of a sort.
Ted Bundy is far better known than any of his victims. Charles Manson is world-famous. Scott Peterson and Joran van der Sloot have received multiple marriage proposals. Lyle Menendez was married on the day he was sentenced for the murder of his parents, eventually was divorced and has since married ANOTHER prison groupie.
Sick.
James Franco taps into that unsettling mindset with his compelling performance as the conniving and manipulative albeit charming sociopath Christian Longo in “True Story,” which is indeed based on a true story about one of the more bizarre journalist/defendant alliances in modern annals.
Directed with detached style by Rupert Goold, “True Story” begins where a conventional crime thriller would end: the arrest of Christian Longo in Mexico. Accused of murdering his wife and three young children in unspeakably gruesome fashion, Longo had been on the run and posing as New York Times journalist Michael Finkel.
Franco’s pal and sometimes partner in comedy Jonah Hill plays Finkel, a gonzo superstar journalist who flamed out in spectacular fashion after it was discovered his New York Times Magazine cover story on the abuse of workers on cocoa plantations in West Africa contained egregious errors and misrepresentations.
After Finkel is fired, he retreats to a log cabin in Montana, where his girlfriend Jill (Felicity Jones) stands by her man as he desperately tries to land freelance work, even though he realizes he’s an utter pariah and his career could be over.
Then comes the call. A journalist from Portland wants to interview Finkel about Christian Longo, who is now in custody and will stand trial for the heinous murder of his wife and children. This is the first time Finkel learns about Longo’s inexplicable decision to take on his identity. It’s unsettling, to say the least — but Finkel also seizes the opportunity for a possible career comeback. If he can get Longo to talk to him, it will be a huge exclusive. Maybe even a book.
Much of “True Story” is staged like a two-character play. It’s just Finkel and Longo in an interrogation room in prison, forging an unlikely and somewhat creepy bond as the Finkel tries to get Longo to talk about the crimes, and Longo spins stories and dances around the truth and flatters Finkel by praising his writing and asking him about his wonderful girlfriend.
At times the dialogue is too obvious and heavy-handed, hammering home points we’ve already discerned. A few scenes in the cabin are overwrought. Jill is horrified by Longo’s drawings and my Michael’s growing fascination with Longo. We get it. We don’t have to be reminded of it time and again. (Jones is brilliant in a scene where Jill confronts Longo in prison and tells him exactly who he is, but it’s far too theatrical and almost too perfectly written. It plays more like wish-fulfillment than something that actually took place.)
Franco gives one of his best performances as Longo. There’s never a false note. From the get-go, we’re almost positive this man is a stone-cold murderer, and yet we understand how Finkel could be seduced into thinking that maybe, just maybe, someone else did it.
Hill doesn’t try to turn Michael Finkel into a hero. His eyes blinking madly behind his thick glasses, Michael is usually the smartest person in any room — but he’s not smart enough to try to hide that. Even after his fall from grace, he can barely contain his hubris. It’s a wonder the lovely and smart and patient Jill puts up with him.
The courtroom scenes are unapologetically over-the-top and sometimes excruciatingly exact in the details of the murder, but you won’t soon forget Franco’s expertly nuanced performance. It’s as good as any work I’ve seen in a film in 2015, and “True Story” is one of the better movies to come along this year.

About the project: Starring “Mathew McConaughey” Free State of Jones is set during the Civil War, tells the story of defiant Southern farmer, Newt Knight, and his extraordinary armed rebellion against the Confederacy. Opposed to both slavery and secession, Knight launched an uprising of poor white farmers that led Jones County, Mississippi to itself secede from the Confederacy, creating a “Free State of Jones.” His relationship and post-war marriage to a former slave, Rachel Knight, effectively established the region’s first mixed-race community. Knight, continued his fight into the post war period, resisting Klan activity through Reconstruction. His legendary rebellion distinguished Newt Knight as a compelling, if controversial, figure of defiance long beyond the War.
