Beyonce stars in another musical!



Beyonce Knowles has lined herself up yet another amazing role playing Etta James in the new musical to hit the cinemas.

Cadillac Records is the new musical biopic starring Beyonce Knowles, Gabrielle Union, Mos Def, Adrien Brody, Jeffrey Wright and many more.

Directed and written by
Darnell Martin, this movie is based on a true-story and explores the musical era from the ealy 1940s to the late 1960s.

The movie tells the story of how a small music record label, Chess Records, eventually gave birth to Rock 'n' Roll in 1955 with Chuck Berry (Mos Def).

In order to do that the record label began recording blues music with Muddy Waters (Jeffrey Wright), the leading role of record producer being played by Adrien Brody.



I'm yet to actually enjoy a musical in the cinema with those spontaneous out bursts of song! I simply can not handle it!

But, this movie has high expectations and apparently shows spectacular performances by all the cast!

So, well done Darnell and personally I can't wait to see Beyonce do her thing!
