Luenell “Puts Her Weight On It” In Dolemite

19/10/23 at 3.08pm   /   by admin   /   0 Comment

Eddie Murphy Returns Big In Craig Brewer Helmed Flick

dolemite squareNetflix will deliver a history lesson Friday October 25th with Dolemite Is My Name, the original movie about the late comedian and actor Rudy Ray Moore. Dolemite Is My Name — directed by Craig Brewer and written by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewsk — tells the story of Moore’s hard-fought battle to get his film made. 

Murphy stars as Moore, an aging, charismatic entertainer who never made it big, but is determined to change that. The film also stars Keegan-Michael Key, Wesley Snipes, Da’Vine Joy Randolph Mike Epps, Craig Robinson, Tituss Burgess, Snoop Dogg, T.I., and Chris Rock. See the trailer at the bottom of the post.

Luenell commented in this week’s LA Times that “Dolemite” and Moore’s subsequent films played to the rafters. “He was making them for everybody, but they resonated more with the black community,” she said. “They might have been a little corny, but hey, that’s all he had! And to see somebody beat the Man sometimes and win … it was goofy and entertaining.”

luenell dolemite premierLuenell continued sharing a connection to the real Moore: A few years before his death, she worked alongside him performing comedy shows, getting to know him on the road.

“Rudy was already a legend in my mind when I got a chance to work with him,” she said. “When the opportunity came, I was like, ‘I get to do a show with Rudy Ray Moore?!’ He was already a little older, but he was still the icon everybody was falling over themselves trying to get a picture with him. That was back in the old Kodak photo days!”

They would sit together and she’d ask about his career, said Luenell, who kept vintage Dolemite merch Moore gifted to her. “He did what nobody could do. It’s like he says in the movie: If they close one door, I’ll go into another one. I don’t know if he’d ever had aspirations of being an actor, producer or director before he got doors slammed in his face, but I know that’s what he became.”

Luenell Guest Stars in A Star Is Born

star is born posterHollywood is buzzing about the impending release of the Bradley Cooper helmed feature film “A Star Is Born” which is scheduled for October 5th release.

Bradley Cooper also wrote the screenplay with Will Fetters and Eric Roth. A remake of the 1937 film of the same name, it stars Cooper, Lady Gaga, Andrew Dice Clay, Dave Chappelle, and Sam Elliott, and our girl Luenell!

It marks the third remake of the original 1937 film, which was adapted into a 1954 musical and then remade as a 1976 rock musical with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.

Apparently Cooper requested Luenell for the role. Luenell and Cooper had worked together previously in “All About Steve”. The film screened recently in Atlanta and Cooper mentioned Luenell when asked about working with comedians and how crazy talented they can be! We agree! Go see “A Star Is Born” when it comes out!
