A Rosa Parks feature may be coming to the big screen soon! Winter Slate Entertainment will start filming a Rosa Parks biopic in 2019. The last film we had of Rosa was the 2002 TV movie The Rosa Parks Story starring Angela Bassett.

Whereas the Rosa Parks Story talked about her life, the biopic will be focused on the 24 hour period following Rosa’s arrest in 1955. A portion of the film’s proceeds will be donated to The Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development which was co-founded in 1987 by Ms. Parks. Now the real question at hand is who is going to play Rosa? Enquiring minds want know.
