Tiana DavisThis story sounds incredible amazing. First off, I’m not racist I’m just trying to make a point. Some of us black people really don’t know where and what we are coming from and the strengths we have which is so sad. This story would just give us a hint of what we went through back-in those days. The story also is showing that, all that has happened back then does still exists now and there is nothing new under the sun. This film would do I great job teaching a part of African-Americans journey. I’m a black young christian woman who’s proud of being who I am and where I came from(Africa). I would absolutely honored working along-side “the great” Gabrielle Union and the other great stars of this production. 0 Reply July 9, 2015

Gabrielle PriceHello, how are you today? This probably won’t be seen but I’m going to give it a shot. I have been in Drama club for all three years of middle school and I’m about to go to high school. I was a cheerleader for two years in middle school and just became one for High school. Acting to me is letting out emotions into a character that you build. Acting isn’t always being serious, but it’s about enjoying the moment. After im done with plays I get a lot of compliments when leaving the buildingand it’s an awesome feeling hearing that. When I’m up on stage it’s like Gabby isn’t even there anymore. I pour myself into someone else and become them and show the crowd. I’ve done Barbizon and Premiere and made both of them, but I couldn’t do it because of a problem. It would be an honor if I could star in this movie. I may not make it far out there, but I want to star in movies and be happy. Into personal details.

Jordan BangHi my name is Jordan Bang/Oliver. I am located in Omaha, Nebraska, but I will be moving to Tallahassee, Florida in a couple weeks. I am a 25 years old African-American male mixed with Caucasian. I would like a role in this movie because I feel that its important for people to know the story of Nat Turner. A lot of people in the African-American community may not be aware of the history of their ancestors. Film is a very unique and special tool that can be used to portray and tell a story and by using this tool we are able to tell a story many people have not heard of. I am inspired by this story. Nat Turners story is definitely a story that is not told in school. I am excited for this! 0 Reply June 10, 2015

Alexander T. Martindale6-4 220 lb. 24 Years Old. Athletic-Still working toward perfect body-I’m a perfectionist, hard worker, and a huge fan of TV/Film Brown hair. Blue eyes. Glasses or contacts. If I had to compare myself to a “Friends” character, it would definitely be Chandler. Great at being awkward and making people uncomfortable. Dark mind, same goes for my sense of humor. 0 Reply June 5, 2015

Tesi UrujeniHi, my name is Tesi Urujeni. I have always wanted to be an actress but I don’t have a lot of opportunity, seeing as though I live in Sacramento. The only opportunities are mediocre school productions which, apparently, im not good enough for. As you can tell im some what bitter, but anyways, I am first generation Rwandan-American. Sometimes people tell me I resemble Gabrielle union. Although im no where near as beautiful and talented as she is. I am 5-2/5-3. I’m somewhat on the chubbier side but im working on it. I am 14, but could play as young as 11 and as old as 16 (although that might be pushing it). Im very strong black rights activist and I would like to someday be an actress and experience is important so I think I would be a grest fit. Right now im on summer vacation and im doing less than nothing so contact me at the email address Provided 0 Reply June 2, 2015
