Blackvoices.com has blogged about the first look of Paula’s new film ‘Push‘ where she stars as Ms. Rain. ‘Push’ will premiere January 15 – 25 at The 2009 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. We will definitely have photo coverage of Ms. Patton. You can read what she has to say about her character as well as Gabby’s Clareece ‘Precious’ Jones. Please be aware that this can contain SPOILERS.
So definitely click on the source to see images from the film. I’m really excited for this; I’ve seen this book countless times upon reshelving it when I worked at the library but never read it… I’m still jazzed either way. We hope you are and hopefully ‘Push’ will make its way to a theatre near you. |

32-year old Paula Patton is making quite a splash in Hollywood these days. Apart from playing an ambitious journalist who has an impact on the life of Kevin Costner in the wry comedy Swing Vote, the actress will also be seen opposite Kiefer Sutherland in the horror film Mirrors, due out later this year. Her family lived across the street from the 20th Century Fox lot when she was growing up and she was a fan of films from her earliest years. Her mother, who also appreciated good films, was a schoolteacher, and her father was a lawyer. Paula claims that as a girl she would escape by “pretending to be someone else” so it was not a surprise that she acted in high school plays at Hamilton Magnet Arts High School. Her favorite role was that of “Abigail” in The Crucible. |

Swing Vote, which opens on August 1st, deals with the story of an election set somewhere in the near future where Bud Johnson (Kevin Costner), a lovable loser, who is coasting through a life and has not a political thought in his head, is thrust into an improbable dilemma. In response, he is coaxed on by his 12-year-old daughter Molly (Madeline Carroll) to take more of a serious approach to life. Molly runs the household and sees an opportunity on election day to energize her father. The election is a “dead heat” with the sole deciding ballot in the hands of a mystified Bud, who is being wooed by candidates from both sides. What attracted you to this role? |
