'Constellation' To Premiere In Huntsville
| Remember back in May of 2004 when Hollywood came to town to film 'Constellation'? I had forgotten also, but the latest buzz is for a fall release with the premiere happening right here in Huntsville, sometime late October or early November. Directed and produced by Jordan Walker-Pearlman, 'Constellation' is the story of a black family in the South as it comes to terms with a past marked by an interracial affair. It stars Billy Dee Williams, Gabrielle Union, Zoe Saldana, Lesley Ann Warren, Rae Dawn Chong and Hill Harper. It was shot entirely on location in Huntsville and financed by local backers. |

The movie took about a month to film in May 2004 at sites such as Big Spring International Park, The Ledges, the Huntsville Museum of Art, Huntsville International Airport and Humphrey's. It used about 800 extras and gave four local kids - Eric Monique Coleman, Chandler Horkman, Kathleen Arthur and Tre Rogers - credited roles.
Stay tuned for more details as they become available and mark you calendars. What fun it will be to see Huntsville on the big screen!
