We already know that Taraji P. Henson, Michael Ealy and Kevin Hart will star in the Will Packer-produced big-screen adaptation of Steve Harvey's best-seller Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, which Tim Story is attached to direct.
This morning, Packer announced the rest of the films cast, namely: Jerry Ferrara, Romany Malco, Gary Owen and Gabrielle Union. Although there's no word on what characters each of them will be playing.
And by the way, as a reminder, the film is now called just Think Like A Man, with the "Act Like A Lady" piece of the books title removed.
The story will center on the relationship between a dreamer with culinary talents, played by Ealy, and a high-powered ad exec, played by Henson. Kevin Hart will essentially play the Steve Harvey character - the "relationship expert" who gives advice to the couple.
Production is scheduled to start this summer.

Of course Gabrielle Union is in it. She hasn't read a black romance movie script that she can turn down. I just cant believe this book is getting the movie treatment. Like really? I would love for one of these people to turn a book by Tananarive Due into a movie. I dont understand why they insist on focusing on the same genre of movies. Do they need inspiration?
