...long process that is, except when it came to casting the principal female character, Samantha Booke. Jurnee Smollett (“Gridiron Gang,” “Roll Bounce”) only read for the part once before Washington made up his mind that she was perfect for the role. Laughing, he admits to also being more than a bit influenced by his wife’s non-stop insistence that Smollett would be excellent in the part.
