A big congratulations to Kumail Nanjiani, Pakistani-American actor, and Issa Rae, AKA Jo-Issa Rae Di
A big congratulations to Kumail Nanjiani, Pakistani-American actor, and Issa Rae, AKA Jo-Issa Rae Diop, Senagalise-American actress, who have been named as the lead couple in a new Paramount movie called “The Lovebirds”. The movie goes into production at the end of January 2019 and will be a romantic comedy where Kumail and Issa’s couple are on the verge of breaking up, but become involved in a murder mystery before doing so. Kumail co-wrote and starred in “The Big Sick” which did very well and surprised a lot of people. It also had an interracial couple - Pakistani and White - and was semi-autobiographical about Kumail’s life. Issa is the creator and star of the HBO comedy-drama series “Insecure” which has received a ton of critical acclaim. Kumail and Issa both will be executive producers on the movie in addition to bringing a lot of comedy star power to the film. We can hardly wait to see it, and we wish many blessings to everyone involved with this production!
