“Training Day” director Antoine Fuqua is set to produce and direct an adaptation of “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof” starring an all-Black cast.

Fuqua’s film version will be based on the 2008 Broadway production of Tennesee Williams’ 1965 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, which made Broadway history as the first production to have an all-Black cast.

Directed by Debbie Allen, the 2008 staging starring Terrence Howard and Tony Award winners Anika Noni Rose, Phylicia Rashad, and James Earl Jones sold out its entire 19-week run and was the top-grossing play of the season.

The production was also staged in London’s West End for a 20-week sold-out run where it won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Revival of A Play.
