Los Angeles, Dec 20 (IANS) Rapper-actor-filmmaker Nick Cannon is directing, writing, producing and starring in "She Ball", an indie film about womens street basketball.
Cannon will star alongside singer Chris Brown, actors Cedric the Entertainer, Evan Ross and Rebecca De Mornay, reports variety.com.
"She Ball" follows the love of the game through the struggles of Avery Watts, played by Cannon, who enlists the baddest women's streetball league in the city to help him save the embattled Inglewood Community Center, which he manages, all the while trying to raise his seven-year-old daughter.
