André Holland Joins Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga In ‘Passing,’ Rebecca Hall’s Directorial Debut.
Based on the 1929 Harlem Renaissance novel by Nella Larsen, the book explored the practice of racial passing, a term used for a person classified as a member of one racial group who seeks to be accepted by – and as – a different racial group
The story followed the unexpected reunion of two high school friends, Clare Kendry (Negga) and Irene Redfield (Thompson), whose renewed acquaintance ignites a mutual obsession that threatens both of their carefully constructed realities.
There is currently no word on Holland’s role. He will next star in Netflix’s The Eddy with Amandla Stenberg.
Deadline first reported Holland’s attachment to the project.
