Jesse Williams to Produce & Star in Upcoming Harry Belafonte Bio.
April 2, 2016
Biopics are films or on screen (rather big or
little(tv)) stories about people lives or cinema that basically
chronicle the lives, which the lives being chronicled on the screen
are usually people who were well known in the world or made a very
pivotal impact on the world
itself.
This description is what we will see in a new up
and coming biopic about actor and legend Harry Belafonte. Not much
was known about the film that was set to chronicle the life of the
thespian himself, or that is at least until
now.
It is recently revealed that Grey's Anatomy star
and activist Jesse Williams has plans to produce and star in a
biopic about his fellow civil rights icon and
entertainer.
The actors choice to play both the activist and
entertainer comes at no surprise seeing that Williams is one of the
most active actors in activism itself and the use to express his
opinion and involvement in social media just like Belafonte without
the social media.
The star was heavily involved in the Justice for
Flint concert which brought the residents together with celebrities
and performers to raise awareness about the water
crisis.
Williams speaking on the reason behind his love
for activism and more.
“I have an awesome job that I love, but there’s
this magnetic force that is constantly pulling me toward activism,”
Williams said of his passion. “I just have to do it. I’m a father
now, I’ve got responsibilities, and there’s only 24 hours in a
day.”
He added that he would always like to do more but
that his time was constrained, and he was not only a husband and
father but was working on three films.
“I’ve got to practice saying no for my own
sanity,” he said. “I’m really exhausting myself, to be
honest.”
With that said, what do you think? Do you think
Williams would be great starring in and producing the biopic about
Harry Belafonte? Let us know by commenting
