There’s no shortage of Hollywood star power in new films streaming this week., a thriller about a woman who believes she’s witnessed a murder, stars Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, Gary Oldman and Jennifer Jason Leigh. In, Angelina Jolie plays a forest firefighter who takes in a boy being pursued by assassins.South African actress Thuso Mbedu plays Cora Randall, the lead character ina new series directed by Barry Jenkins and based on the novel by Colson Whitehead.
“One major thing that shifted my approach to Cora was audio testimonials of formerly enslaved people that Barry [Jenkins] sent me. What fascinated me was how they sounded. When they speak in movies, they have a very fluent English that we can easily understand. But in the tapes, they spoke a very broken English. What really jarred me was that the English that they spoke is an English that certain Black people speak even today in parts of South Africa.
