On Thursday, we posted the first theatrical one-sheet of Janet Jackson as "The Lady in Red" in Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls. Here are the one-sheets of Loretta Devine and Kimberly Elise. Kerry Washington's is AFTER THE JUMP ...
The screen adaptation of Ntozake Shange's For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf has been officially shortened to For Colored Girls. The release date has been moved up to November for Academy Award season. For Colored Girls also co-stars Macy Gray, who talked to R20 about the movie and Tyler Perry.

Don't think Kimberly looks angry, she looks pained to me. This woman is one of my favorite actresses. I can't wait to see this.

I can't believe Loretta Devine is pushing 60, she doesn't look a day over 45. Black don't crack.......

I agree with you guys, these pictures are all meant to showcase an emotion or state of being if you will...I love them all.

Guys, and I am not being sharp here just helpful. If you can find ANYTHING about FOR COLORED GIRLS on Youtube, WATCH IT! It is a MASTERFUL piece and will get you ready for the film in November.
It's a serious SISTERS-GOING-THROUGH-ALL-OF-THEIR-EMOTIONS kinds of piece and these photos are priceless.

This is a contemporary African American classic. I want this to be GOOD Tyler.
You hear me chawl.
