openentrance – What’s Really Going OnWhat’s Really Going On

Music video director Earle Sebastian is collaborating with hip-hop mogul Damon Dash on a project titled ‘Sammy and Kim,’ detailing his lurid affair with screen siren Kim Novak. Sam Kashner, who detailed the relationship for ‘Vanity Fair’ is working on the screenplay. André 3000 is expected to play Davis, and Mr. Sebastian plans to direct. Benjamin, who has starred in films such as ‘Four Brothers,’ ‘Idlewild,’ and ‘Be Cool,’ is building an impressive portfolio of work outside of his groundbreaking hip-hop outfit OutKast.

Many have criticized 3000 for his style and some even for music as of late. Nonetheless, he has grown tremendously both as a musician and an actor. Taking on the role as Davis Jr. could be just as career defining as Jamie Foxx portraying the late Ray Charles.
