Queen Latifah's been more known for her comedy roles, but she's not averse to a more dramatic job. Which is good news for Netflix, which has her lined up to star in and produce a new thriller called End Of The Road.
Millicent Shelton, who has worked on shows such as The Walking Dead and Black-ish, will direct the movie from a script by David Loughery. The story focuses on the recently widowed Brenda, who drives her family cross-country to start a new life after losing her job. While isolated in the desert in New Mexico, the family must learn to fight back when they become targeted by a mysterious killer.
This won't be Latifah's first Netflix project – she's recently appeared in Ryan Murphy's Hollywood, and on the action front, she'll lead a new version of The Equalizer on TV.
