Congratulations to ‘Ninja fav (and interviewee) Lawrence Hill on the news that his Book of Negroes will be adapted to film. I heard him this morning on CBC talking about it, and one of the points made during the piece is how tough the competition will be among young black actresses hoping for this part.
Canadian producer Conquering Lion Pictures has optioned the film rights to Lawrence Hill’s bestselling novel The Book of Negroes. Toronto-based filmmaker Clement Virgo (”Poor Boy’s Game”) and producing partner Damon D’Oliveira are to adapt the award-winning novel for the big screen as an international co-production, with Virgo directing.
