Samuel L. Jackson’s obsessive need to be in every movie under the sun continues as he signs up for the thriller Lakeview Terrace. Kerry Washington has also signed on to what may end up being a controversial movie.

More info from Variety…

An interracial couple moves into a new home, but the dream house turns into a nightmare when they are taunted by their next-door neighbor, a tightly wound, racist LAPD officer.

So Jackson and Washington are both black, so I’m guessing we are missing a “third man” who should be white.

As Jackson is 28 years OLDER than Washington, it is also safe to presume that he will be the “racist LAPD officer” and Washington along with the “third man” will be the couple.

This movie has loads of potential and it’s real easy to imagine Jackson playing an awesome racist villain. I mean he almost plays a racist in the third Die Hard movie.

No director attached as of yet.
