See Kerry Washington in a role a lot different from "Scandal" in romantic comedy film "Is He The One". From being a crisis management expert to the President in the hit TV series, the audience will get to see her again in the big screen as bride looking forward to meeting her groom at the altar.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the movie starts with Washington as a bride preparing for her wedding. Flashbacks show her three serious relationships and now she's walking down the aisle... but who's at the altar to greet her is still unidentified.
"Is He The One" is penned by DJ Richardson and Michelle Morgan of "Girls Most Likely". It will be directed by Malcolm D. Lee of "The Best Man" and "The Best Man Holiday". Producer is Todd Garner. Supervising the project are MGM Motion Picture Group president Jonathan Glickman and senior vice president Cassidy Lange.
Kerry Washington's rise to fame has been impressive. Her film debut was in "Our Song", which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, but she got her biggest break in hit teen drama "Save the Last Dance", where she played starring role alongside Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas. She won the Choice Breakout Performance award at the Teen Choice Awards.
She'd been into several TV shows, including "Law & Order" and "NYPD Blue" and movies, including "Bad Company" (with Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins), "The United States of Leland" (with Ryan Gosling and Don Cheadle), and "Against The Ropes" (with Meg Ryan). Washington received recognition for her performance in "Ray" opposite Jamie Foxx but that did nothing to help her bag more interesting high-profile roles. It was only in year 2005 she got to play alongside A-listers Jessica Alba and Angelina Jolie in "Fantastic Four" and "Mr. & Mrs. Smith".
Her role as Olivia Pope in "Scandal" has also helped Kerry Washington reach her stardom.
