Inspired by a Tumblr comment about the two actresses, Ava decided to go ahead and shoot something with them, lol. Classic.

Honestly, if this was being directed by Brett Ratner or set up at Sony Pictures this would seem like the dumbest idea ever

 

[DrCosmic]

Ugh, this is so ridiculous, and so awesome. I honestly can't wait.

 

[David H.]

Nice. The future of cinema.

 

[CB Fan]

Can we get Rihanna a catsuit and a whip or is that too much?...

I hope this leads to this:

And Ava Duvernay is the director. She can film/write Vixen and still do socially relevant work like The 13th. I'm a fan of her work so I'd like to see her make something she's more than equipped to handle.

 

[Silvermoth]

I can't wait to watch this movie!

Although I wish the film ideas #GayTwitter came up with got approved too. For example: my future Oscar winning script called "Chris Evans and Harry shum are alone and lonely in the forest"

I'm in love with the cast and premise so far.

 

[Silvermoth]

Yeah, really you couldn't ask for anyone better could you?

 

[DrCosmic]

What a crazy world we live in that a few tweets could have us excited for a movie starring Rihanna, y'know?

I hope this leads to this:

And Ava Duvernay is the director. She can film/write Vixen and still do socially relevant work like The 13th. I'm a fan of her work so I'd like to see her make something she's more than equipped to handle.

This would be the absolute bomb. Maybe take some of the same elements she would have brought to Black Panther.

I am in love with this. I wonder if the original blogger who proposed the idea will get thanked or compensated somehow.
