Hi. Yes. Hello, Hollywood? Iβm not sure of the name, but after seeing Jonathan Majors and Issa Rae exchange some hella good comedic energy while presenting at the 2023 NAACP Image Awards over the weekend, I need to talk to whoeverβs in charge of the rom-com department so we can solidify a new project as soon as possible.

Why? What do you mean why? Just look at the material:
And if thatβs not enough, Majors has already got the perfect plot in mind.
βWe grew up together. And then I come back home, and itβs like βOh, okay.β We can start with that,β he explained to Variety on Sunday. βI want to do a run through a park, you know what I mean, a run through Central Park, trying to beat her to the airport. Say we live in Harlem, then weβve got Central Park and then youβre running through LaGuardia trying to find Issa. Issa, you want to do it? Letβs do it.β
Now I donβt know about you, but Iβm sold just off the description alone. Of course, we can iron out the rest of the details at a later date but come one! Look at them! Theyβre two of Hollywoodβs brightest and lovable stars right now. Majors is the man making the women swoon and the men mad. Rae is our gorgeous play cousin with a killer smile, flawless complexion and perfect βgirl-next-doorβ energy.
Make. It. Happen. And better yet, letβs put it in the hands of either Tracy Oliver, Malcolm D. Lee, Stella Meghie, Will Packer, or Yvette Lee Bowser to really make it pop.
Iβm gonna follow up on this so whoever the powers that be are that can wield it to be so...wield it to be so. Weβre rooting for this, we are all rooting for this!
