Angela Bassett To Direct

Gina Wilhelm Actress - Angela Bassett To Direct

Angela Bassett is set to make her directorial debut on the film "United States." She will be co-producing it with her husband, Courtney B. Vance.

The independent feature is based on the novel "Erasure" by Percival Everett and is being described as a dramatic comedy.

In addition to this being Bassett's directing debut, this will also be the first film produced by Bassett/Vance Prods.

The adaptation is written by Dwayne Johnson-Cochran and concerns an author who writes a faux autobiography.

Until she helms "United States," Bassett can still be seen weekly on "ER" and, as mentioned previously in this blog, recently appeared in "Notorious."
