Actress Thandie Newton, who has starred in dramatic films such as “Crash” and “Pursuit of Happyness”, admits that her role in the highly anticipated film “For Colored Girls”, is one of the most challenging roles that she has had so far.
In the dramatic film the English actress plays a rebellious and promiscuous bartender, which she says made her feel vulnerable and uncomfortable. Thandie told Comingsoon.net the following:
“I felt like I was possessed … I felt uncomfortable exploring this sexually-depraved, mean, negative energy. I really felt very vulnerable because it’s so not who I am, at all. ”
The film “For Colored Girls” directed and produced by Tyler Perry consists of eight African-American women who are struggling with personal conflicts, such as love, abandonment, rape, infidelity, and abortion. The film has a star studded cast that also features actress Kerry Washington, Janet Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, and hits theaters today.
