Casting Correction on SHAFT

Hey folks Harry Here, seems that the casting of Angela Bassett that Cotton reported yesterday was not entirely accurate. She was up for the role, she was offered the role, but somewhere in the process things just didn't go right. However, the role has apparently been cast and Shaft (Samuel L Jackson) will be having Vanessa Williams in the role instead. Well, while I prefer Angela as an actress, I keep rooting for Vanessa, I've been a fan of her's ever sincee the Miss America pageant gave her the shaft, and I now she'll be giving it her best in SHAFT. I can't wait, I really believe Singleton is gonna make one helluva kickass movie.
