Angel Reese Set to Make Hollywood Debut Alongside Idris Elba in Netflix Thriller

The movie premiered at the Venice Film Festival earlier and garnered an 11-minute standing ovation. If that is the response the film gets worldwide, expect this to have an incredible impact on Angel Reese‘s brand.

Angel Reese has a basketball-themed scene with Idris Elba

After doing a lot on the fashion front, Angel Reese is trying to make inroads into Hollywood and television. Recently, she managed to make contact with the creator of another Netflix hit, Hunting Wives.

Even if the creator and the show’s producers agree, it will be a while before the WNBA star starts shooting. On that note, this upcoming film, A House of Dynamite, will be her debut.

In the movie, the Maryland native has a scene with leading star Idris Elba, and The Hollywood Reporter gave a spoiler as to what Reese would be doing in the scene.

There’s a little bit of a lead-up to her cameo as Elba’s character, the President of the United States, is briefed in the White House that the next item on his agenda is an “Angel Reese” thing. The action picks up as the president visits Liberty Arena where Reese is waiting on the basketball floor with a group of girls.

The Hollywood Reporter revealed

The publication reveals that this is not just a quick cameo. Rather, Reese engages with Elba in the scene for a while before he is shifted away to another scene. The movie will also hit theaters globally on October 10th.

Angel Reese and Sky hope to eke out some wins before tough final 3 games

Since Angel Reese came back from her back injury, the Chicago Sky have lost 5 of their last 6 games. The lone win was an impressive one against the defending champion New York Liberty.

They will face the Liberty again in their regular-season finale, and before that, two home games against the hot-handed Las Vegas Aces. The Sky will probably lose those 3 games, considering both their opponents are battling for playoff seedings.

But before those 3 tough games, they will face the Connecticut Sun and the Indiana Fever. The former won their last matchup and have been in surprising form. The latter has been inconsistent amidst a string of injuries.

Both those games are winnable, as the Sky possess the players to fight for a win. If their recent performances against playoff teams were anything to go by, all Reese and her teammates need is to continue that strategy.

This season did not work out the way they planned, but it will be motivating if they can finish the season with some wins. Angel Reese and her teammates are hoping their late-season improvements can pan out in the future.
