A short clip of our director, Nelsan Ellis on Chelsea Lately, for those who haven’t seen it.
Thanks to Canadian site Xtra.ca: Canada’s gay and lesbian news, and Project Safe in Brooklyn for giving us a shout!
What you see before you is the Damn Wonderful transcript! The producers Theo Perkins and Khadija A Brockington are currently piecing it together for the editors. Those are some powerful words. Hope they don’t get literally blown away by all that awesomeness.
Congratulations Nelsan!
Director Lee Daniels has tapped Nelsan Ellis to play Martin Luther King Jr in The Butler. Ellis, who plays Lafayette Reynolds in True Blood, most recently completed The Reluctant Fundamentalist in Gods Behaving Badly. He’s directing the documentary Damn Wonderful.
