“The Three Stooges” is slated to hit theaters after J-Hud’s Winnie Mandela biopic, “Winnie,” which is in post production. Hudson has appeared in a number of other films since her star-making turn in 2006’s “Dreamgirls,” including “Sex and the City,” “The Secret Life of Bees” and the little-seen “Winged Creatures” (also known as “Fragments”).

Fans have been eagerly awaiting news on who would join the project, so today’s announcement brings much excitement. We can’t wait to see what this talented actress brings to her role in this iconic comedy classic!
The new Three Stooges film follows Larry, Moe and Curly attempting to save their childhood orphanage from being closed down by raising money through hilarious hijinx. Jennifer Hudson joins a stellar line-up that includes Will Sasso as Curly, Sean Hayes as Larry and Chris Diamontopoulos as Moe. These actors are sure to bring us plenty of laughs with their interpretations of these beloved characters – especially when teamed up with Jennifer Hudson’s comedic timing.
With production already underway and a release date set for April 2012, we’ve got our eyes peeled for more updates about this hotly anticipated comedy flick! So stay tuned for all the latest news on the new Three Stooges feature starring Jennifer Hudson – it promises to be one wild ride!
Overview Of Film
The Three Stooges is a long-running comedy franchise that many people know and love. It’s centered around the antics of three mischievous friends who are always getting into trouble. Now, Hollywood has decided to bring this classic series back with an all-new movie featuring Jennifer Hudson in a leading role.
This new film will be directed by the Farrelly brothers, known for their other popular comedies such as Dumb & Dumber and There’s Something About Mary. They have promised to deliver an authentic adaptation of The Three Stooges while also making it accessible to modern audiences. Alongside Hudson, Academy Award nominee Sean Hayes (Will & Grace) will play one of the iconic characters and Chris Diamantopoulos (24) will take on another role from the original series.
With these talented actors signed up for the project, fans can expect plenty of laughs when The Three Stooges hits theaters later this year. Who knows — perhaps even more star power may join before filming wraps!
Jennifer Hudson’s Role
The casting of Jennifer Hudson is an exciting development for the new Three Stooges movie. She will be playing a character named Sister Rosemary, who is described as “the kindest nun in town” and the trio’s unlikely confidante. While her role may seem small at first glance, it could actually end up being integral to the story since she’s likely to be the mediator between them and their other characters.
Hudson brings a lot of star power to this project with her Academy Award nomination for Dreamgirls and numerous hit songs like “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going.” Her talent and experience will surely add some much needed credibility to The Three Stooges’ return to the big screen.
It’ll be interesting to see how Hudson fits into all the comedic chaos that these movies are known for — something tells us it won’t take long before audiences start singing along with her again!
Conclusion
In conclusion, I’m thrilled to hear that Jennifer Hudson has been casted in the new Three Stooges movie. It’s a unique opportunity for her to show off her comedic chops and expand on her already impressive body of work. As an advocate for diversity in Hollywood, it’s inspiring to see an African-American actress being given such a prominent role.
Her casting is also important for continuing the legacy of The Three Stooges and giving fans something special to look forward to with this new adaptation. While the trio are icons in their own right, there’s always room for fresh takes on classic characters. With Hudson bringing her unique talents to the table, this film could be something truly memorable.
I can’t wait to see what she brings to the project! Her talent speaks volumes and I have no doubt that audiences will love seeing her bring life into these iconic roles when the film releases later this year.
