YAY! Super-congrats to your friend
Dreamgirls is one of my all-time favourite musicals and I'm praying the movie does the show justice

What part is he playing? I'm taking a risk here and ruling out Effie.

I've got a part for him. (Did I say that out loud?) :-P

Seriously, though, that's awesome.

Popular---That's very cool. Speaking of background dancing, who is choreographing this movie?

Bill Condon is a terrific writing & directing talent, but a choreographer he is not. Who's doing the honors?

I'll ask him next time I get a chance... has the info not been made public about the choreographer yet?

#15

re: My friend got cast in Dreamgirls movie! :)

Not that I'm aware of, no.

Maybe he has to keep quiet about that until it's "official."

But I haven't seen any choreographer mentioned for this film yet.

BTW, has an Effie been announced yet? And is it confirmed that Fantasia is Lorrel? I've been out of the loop on that sort of thing.

To answer about the choreographing... it's Fatima, she's done a lot of the GAP commercials and stuff. Quinton said it's cool to let you guys know that.

Hmmm, now I wonder who his sister's friend is who told him I posted here LOL
