For Colored Girls Kerry Washington Close Up 9 10 kc Character Banners For Tyler Perrys For Colored Girls

Lionsgate has just released 8 new character banners for Tyler Perry’s latest film For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf. The film features an all star cast of actresses who each portray a complex and traumatized character. It’s based on the stage play of the same name that was written by Ntozake Shange. Check out the cast below…

The play was originally produced in 1975 and was a poetic exploration of what it is to be of color and a female in this world. In the above photos we see all the ladies of the cast including Anika Noni Rose (as Yasmine), Kerry Washington (as Kelly), Janet Jackson (as Joanna), Kimberly Elise (as Crystal), Phylicia Rashad (as Gilda), Loretta Devine (as Juanita), and Thandie Newton (Tangie).

This will be the first film that Tyler Perry has directed that isn’t based on his own, original material. It will be interesting to see if he can pull it off. Good luck!

For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf is scheduled to hit theaters on November 5th.

What do you think of the character banners for the film? Which one is your favorite?

    I enjoy all things Tyler Perry! And I know that people are going to judge this latest with an attitude – reflecting on the original play. But who says that this movie has to absolutely reflect the original. The original play by the way was a little weird and different. I do own a copy because I appreciate the uniqueness. This film will undoubtedly have its own uniqueness and I dare not compare it to the original. I will simply enjoy it!
