Beyonce, Ali Larter & Idris Elba get OBSESSED

London born but frequent American t.v. show helmer Steve Shill will mark his feature directorial debut with Obsessed, a new thriller that Screen Gems are putting together from a script by David Loughery. He is the writer of the upcoming thriller Lakeview Terrace and he previously wrote Money Train and Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.

The recognisable faces of Beyonce Knowles, Ali Larter and Idris Elba make up the core cast…

In “Obsessed,” Elba will play an asset manager who has a knockout wife (Knowles) and thriving career until a temp office worker (Larter) begins stalking him.

Elba, you lucky son of a bitch having those two beauties fighting over you. Though, Larter as a stalker sounds creepy.

Elba of course is that superb actor from The Wire who briefly appeared in movies such as American Gangster, 28 Weeks Later and a much bigger role in The Reaping last year. He is set to play “Mumbles” in Guy Ritchie’s upcoming movie Rock’N'Rolla, and I hope he gets a big part in it.

For Beyonce this is her first movie since Dreamgirls. Larter is of course a regular on Heroes and is rumored to the new franchise star for the Resident Evil series.

Seeing them bitch slap each other over getting into bed with Elba might be kinda fun. Or is she a serial killer stalker?

  3. Please noooooooooooo—-My fine black brother is going to play the part because he’s sexy and can act his you know what off. Beyonce is the worst actress on the planet. NO I AM NOT A HATER. She’s accompolished so much and good for her. She’s dicsiplined but she cannot act worth a damn. If anything she’s still trying to prove it after Dreamgirls. Yes, she has her fans that will fill the seats but she’s going to be the laughing stock again or considered an airhead. Lets face it, SHE CAN BARELY SPEAK CORRECTLY. NO Beyonce let it go. Then to play Etta in another movie. OH Lord to be rich in america

  4. I think that is called hating. I don’t want to make you feel down or anything, because of me SNAPPING on you and because I don’t know you, and you don’t know me. I’m gonna keep it less violence just because I know that once I type one thing i’m going to start going crazy. I am going to say this 1 time and 1 time only LEAVE BEYONCE THE FUCK ALONE, Before you be the crying stock and considered a airhead, because you not going to beable to barely speak correctly, shit fucking with me (and I will find you)you will have yo damn hands sowed to ya damn lips, then you won’t have to mention beyonce name. Hell you better hope you have ears and eyes left. you won’t have to worry about beyonce at all.

    P.S I tried to keep it less violent, but I guess my acting wasn’t good enough.
    And beyonce DO THE DAMN THANG.

  5. Wow, that last comment sounded like…”obsessed.” I hope the movie is good. I do admire Beyonce for trying something that she is not good at, ACTING.
