Red Tails Director Reveals Release Date

Suddenly, the dormant George Lucas-produced Red Tails -- an actioner about the Tuskegee Airmen -- is back on the slate: Director Anthony Hemingway revealed on Twitter that the movie will hit theaters in January 2012. That's not official yet, per se, but it's enough to get me excited for the Cuba Gooding Jr. Comeback Tour! (The cast also includes Terrence Howard, Nate Parker, David Oyelowo, Tristan Wilds, Method Man, Lee Tergesen, Ne-Yo, Elijah Kelley, Andre Royo and Jesse Williams.) [indieWIRE]
