Check out this weekend's edition of UPFRONT Inside Atlanta's Entertainment Industry. It features Jamie Foxx, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Dominique Fishback of Project Power and Muta' Ali, director of the HBO Documentary Yusuf Hawkins: Storm Over Brooklyn.
Oscar winning actor, singer and comedian Jamie Foxx is back with an all new super drama titled Project Power. It debuts this weekend on Netflix and features Foxx along with Dominique Fishback and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as a U.S. soldier, a teen drug dealer and a police officer who come together to stop the distribution of a pill that gives each user superpowers for five minutes. I talked to the cast about their characters, what super powers they'd like to possess and more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYfGZuvjVVA">Click here to watch my interview with Fishback and Levitt and watch the full AAFCA Roundtable discussion with Jamie Foxx below:
