MOVIES: Michael Jai White is BLACK DYNAMITE




Above is the trailer for an upcoming film channeling the era of blaxploitation and getting it completely right! Actor and martial artist Michael Jai White, known for his roles as Mike Tyson from HBO's Mike Tyson film, direct to video sequel "Undisputed 2", Tyler Perry's "Why Diid I Get Married", Steven Seagal's "Exit Wounds" and most recently seen in "The Dark Knight" in a pivotal scene with Heath Ledger, created and stars as Black Dynamite. In "Black Dynamite", Michael Jai White channels Richard Roundtree, Jim Kelly, Fred Williamson and Dolemite among others in his homage to black film heroes of the 70's. Done as a parody and spot on recreation, the film features many guest appearances from a who's who of Black Hollywood and showcases his superb fighting skills. Check out a great interview at TWITCHFILM where he reveals plans for a sequel and shopping the film at this year's Sundance festival.
