Uncle Buck is one of the first movies I remember loving as a kid and sparked an eternal love for John Candy. They've already made a tv show of it once in the 90s (which I watched) and now of course they're going to the well again. What came out yesterday, is that it will be an all black cast
Now I firmly believe this is due to the success of Empire, Black Ish, How to Get Away with Murder and the continued success of Scandal so even if you're not a fan of those shows, as a black man or woman, it's time to be thankful for them because they're showing networks that we can move numbers just as much as our white counterparts, and in the case of Empire, crush those numbers.
He passed on Rush Hour?
