Queen Latifah is set to appear in and produce the teen comedy “Paper Chase” movie through her Flavor Unit production company along with Gunpowder & Sky.
Latifah and Shakim Compere, who founded Flavor Unit in 1995, will executively produce with Gunpowder & Sky’s Van Toffler.
“Paper Chase” which was created by writers Angela Tucker and Lauren Domino will be directed by Tucker (“All Styles”), while Domino will produce. Loretha Jones is also set to executive produce.
Latifah said, “Shakim and I have known Van forever and we’re thrilled to collaborate with him and his team.” “This film is exactly what we love to do, make fun and energetic projects that audiences have a blast going to see. Lauren Domino and Angela Tucker are such great talents and we can’t wait to get started.”
The story will follow an ideal driven, well-meaning New Orleans teenager named Alicia, who is ready to reinvent herself at Kensington University in Atlanta. When she can’t pay her tuition fees, Alicia, her cash-strapped mom, and her best friend plan to throw a rager to raise the money to keep her college dream alive
