Keri Washington to Produce New Film

If you have an undying love for the provocative series “Scandal”, you’ll adulate the new film HBO is presenting soon. The network has inked out a deal with Kerry Washington in which she would star in and produce a movie called “Confirmation” for the network. In the film, she will portray Anita Hill and the pivotal 1991 hearings brought forth for the Clarence Thomas-Hill Supreme Court nomination. Washington will enact the colleague that accuses Thomas of assault in the film. With these court proceedings, a variance of topics will arise that correlate to the very cases we are experiencing today.

Susannah Grant will reportedly be a part of the project’s script creation. She is most noted for her work with “Erin Brockovich”. The movie is being produced by Groundswell Productions in conjunction with ABC Signature Studios. A director has not been nailed down at this time.

With all of the high acclamation that “Scandal” has ensued, this new project is a great stepping stone to add another exciting notch to Washington’s already extensive belt. Will you be watching? Let us know on Twitter: @AKAqusite or Instagram: @primandpropernews !
