Amazon MGM Orion Pictures has begun production on Is God Is, a film adaptation of Aleshea Harris's Obie-winning play. The story centers on twin sisters Racine and Anaia, portrayed by Kara Young (I’m a Virgo) and Mallori Johnson (Kindred), who bear both physical scars and deep-seated trauma. Living on the fringes of society, their lives shift when they learn their bedridden mother has survived and reveals a haunting truth—their father, who scarred them and left her incapacitated, is still alive. With her final wish for revenge, the sisters must decide whether to confront or forgive the man who destroyed their family.

The highly anticipated Broadway revival of Ossie Davis' iconic play, "Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp Through the Cotton Patch," has announced its complete cast lineup. Joining the previously announced Leslie Odom Jr., under the direction of Kenny Leon, a stellar ensemble is set to grace the stage.

Boots Riley’s upcoming Amazon series ‘I’m a Virgo,’ which is led by Jharrel Jerome, has added six to its cast. Actors Brett Gray, Kara Young, Allius Barnes, and Olivia Washington join I’m a Virgo as series regulars with Mike Epps and Carmen Ejogo set to recur.
