Odom, Jr.: Andrew Arthur / Ellis-Taylor and Reid: Getty Images / Taylor: Dino Serrao Golden Globe winner and Oscar and Grammy nominee Teyana Taylor is assembling an all-star cast for her feature directorial debut, “Get Lite,” starring Storm Reid and NFL rookie-turned-actor Ceyair Wright.
Tony winner and Oscar nominee Leslie Odom, Jr. (“Hamilton,” “One Night in Miami”) and Oscar nominee Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor (“King Richard,” “Lucky”) have joined the ensemble cast for the Paramount movie, which follows a talented but sheltered dance student who finds inspiration, love and family in the last place he expected: the subways of New York City. Wright (“Space Jam: A New Legacy”) is the student caught between worlds, while Reid (“The Last of Us,” “Euphoria”) is the girl who opens his life to new possibilities. Key to the dance movie is Litefeet, a high-energy style that originated in Taylor’s hometown of Harlem.
