It should come as no surprise to fans of E4’s Misfits that, slowly but surely, members of the U.K. show’s stellar cast are branching off and attaching themselves to higher-profile projects. We saw Ruth Negga do it this summer with her starring role in the BBC’s Shirley Bassey bio-pic, Shirley.

This one is titled The Pursuit, and said to be an action thriller which will star Curtis ''50 Cent'' Jackson, to be directed by none other than Mr Jesse Terrero, the same cat who brought us that classic of black cinema known as Soul Plane.

An inside source involved in the production of NBC's The Playboy Club just informed me that the show has indeed been cancelled. Of course this news comes as no surprise to those of us whom have followed the show since its premiere. With the steep decline in ratings seen after each episode aired, it was inevitable that the doors were set to close on NBC's period-piece series.

Isaiah Washington is proud to say he’s finally “out of the system” when it comes to Hollywood. According to Washington, Mother Africa has given him the power to be free. The Spike Lee film veteran (Crooklyn, Clockers, Girl 6, Get On The Bus) grew up in Houston, later graduating from Howard University as a Theater Arts Major. Before starting his acting career in 1991, Washington served in the U.S. Air Force.
