Number One on the Call Sheet Los Angeles Premiere Event
Number One on the Call Sheet Los Angeles Premiere Event
The Chinese Theater is one of the greatest movie palaces in America. Giant screen, fantastic sound…we actually did the final sound check for BOOMERANG there. I saw so many classic films, from THE MATRIX to STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE here. So many movie premieres have been here, plus the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the hand and footprints in front…it’s a landmark in every way. So yeah, I was really happy to have NUMBER ONE ON THE CALL SHEET do an event there!
The sky was cloudy and moody, with intermittent rain, but it that didn’t dampen my mood at all. It looked cool!
Almost there!
I’m with Shola Lynch, who directed the “Leading Ladies” half of the film, producer Datari Turner, star Ruth Negga, and star and producer Jamie Foxx.
Tommy Davidson is incredibly funny but has always been so welcoming to me since I visited the set of IN LIVING COLOR. So glad to see him!
I’m with comedian Kym Whitley and head of Apple TV Jamie Erlicht.
Chrisette and I in our seats.
My mom Helen Hudlin with Annette May, who was our neighbor back in East St. Louis, but now that they both live in LA, they roll out to all the cool events.
My son Alexander with his godmother Terri Ewing.
After the screening of several clips from the film, we had a panel discussion with me, the producers and stars of the movie.
As we are leaving the theater for the afterparty, my mom stops for a picture with Mario Van Peebles and his son Mandela.
Bill Bellamy gathers me, his son Barron, and Byron for a quick picture.
