by Tim Gordon

Three best friends who call themselves “The Supremes” have experienced life together through the good and bad, and are now finding their friendship tested in The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat.

Directed and co-written by Tina Mabry, the film is based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Edward Kelsey Moore. The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat stars Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Sanaa Lathan, Uzo Aduba, Mekhi Phifer, Julian McMahon, Vondie Curtis-Hall, and Russell Hornsby.

Mabry also co-wrote the screenplay with three-time Black Reel Award winner Gina Prince-Bythewood, who would eventually be credited as Cee Marcellus in the final credits. In addition, Lathan and McMahon reunite in this film after working together in Nip/Tuck.
