When I was told that Netflix was releasing a movie Monster, about Steve, a young black man caught up in the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong crowd, who ends up on trial for murder, I knew it sounded familiar. It turns out the film, from 2018 which is being released on Netflix, tonight, May 7, is based on the 1999 book by Walter Dean Myers.
The film stars Kelvin Harrison Jr. as Steve Harmon, and boasts a truly impressive cast overall. Jennifer Hudson and Jeffrey Wright play his parents, Mrs. and Mr. Harmon. Tim Blake Nelson plays Professor Sawicki; I m a fan of both the character and the actor. I m curious to see how Jennifer Ehle will do as Miss O Brien; I m sure readers had an opinion on her! John David Washington plays Bobo, one of the other accused, while famous rappers Nas and A$AP Rocky round out the cast.
