Great news – Another new film! Paula Patton will star as a female pimp in This Wednesday with her husband, chart-topping R&B artist Robin Thicke, in negotiations to write his first film score for the urban drama.

In the movie, inspired by the true story of a female pimp in Atlanta, Patton will play the title role of Wednesday, the “trick baby” of a pimp father and hooker mother. With her best friend’s support, she struggles to survive on the harsh streets of Philadelphia. Christine Crokos wrote and will direct the movie, an expanded version of her 2001 short Heroine Helen about the same character. Shooting is expected to begin late this year in Philadelphia.
