New World Wide Pictures movie opens doors

MINNEAPOLIS — “Something to Sing About,” World Wide Pictures’ new full-length movie, opens doors to a first-time director Charlie Jordan and a primarily African-American cast and crew. Plus, it’s one of the only Christian movies set to air nationally on television in June.

“Something to Sing About” is the story about the power of a loving friendship. Tommy Blessed, a young man played by Darius McCrary (“Family Matters”) who’s seeking a better life, can’t catch a break until his voice catches Memaw’s ear. She’s a spunky, old saint with a big heart played brilliantly by Irma P. Hall (“Patch Adams”). As Tommy grows from his dark past, he has a chance to share in a bright future.

“Something to Sing About” also stars Tamera Mowry (“Sister, Sister”). Grammy-Award winner Kirk Franklin, Rashaan Nall and Davik Parikh. Other cast members include John Amos (“Coming to America”) and Grant Goodeye (“Eight is Enough”).
