UTA has signed multitalented Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winning actress-musician-producer, Queen Latifah, and her production company, Flavor Unit Entertainment.
Flavor Unit Entertainment produced Queen Latifah’s award-winning HBO films Bessie and Life Support, as well as her comedies Bringing Down the House, Beauty Shop and The Perfect Holiday.
Other Flavor Unit productions include The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story, The Best Place to Be, Curvy Style With Timothy Snell, The Perfect Match and The Rap Game.
Latifah continues to be represented by her Flavor Unit partner, Shakim Compere, manager Randi Michel of Artists First and attorney Stewart Levy of Eisenberg, Tanchum & Levy.
Latifah is coming off Universal’s big hit comedy Girls Trip, which made more than $140 million worldwide; the cast has a deal to return for a sequel but no greenlight yet from the studio.
Latifah has six Grammy Award nominations and won in 1995 for Best Rap Album. Currently, she appears on Lee Daniels’ Star.
