Reaper’s Jessica Stroup appears in the upcoming remake of Prom NightDonna (Brittany Snow), Claire (Jessica Stroup), and their friends are looking forward to the biggest night of their young lives, their Senior Prom. The magic turns into horror, though, when a man from Donna’s past goes on a murderous rampage. Now, the gang must figure out how to survive Prom Night.
Prom Night opens April 11, 2008.
This isn’t a big scoop, but Jessica Stroup, known to us as Cady, the current on-screen girlfriend of Reaper Sam Oliver, appears in the new holiday feature This Christmas. The film, which opened Thanksgiving, tells the story of the Whitfield family, and their first time together for Christmas in four years. This comedy/drama features many of the common features of American family life that are forgotten by most holiday films, told through the eyes of a Los Angeles African-American family.
I’m not crazy about the nauseating way that the Sony Pictures official website for the movie works, but it does have videos, photos, and more for this film.
It’s worth seeing just for the amazing acting of Loretta Devine, and Delroy Lindo.
If it’s at a theater near you, currently, you can still catch:
- Family fights.
- A brother who is AWOL from the Marines. Touchy in a time of war.
- One sister trying to sell off the family business and split the profits.
- A brother on the run from loan sharks.
- Sisterly catfight.
